Editor of Kitchens & Bathrooms News, Philippa Turrell commented: “Although reports in the field suggest the kitchen and bathroom industry is improving, as consumer confidence slowly returns, it’s interesting to see our readers haven’t forgotten lessons from the recent past. Peace of mind when making purchases is still very much key for our readership of bathroom and kitchen showrooms, architects, interior designers, house builders and developers.”
