"I had done some cabinet making a long time ago and my father was very handy and showed me a lot about building, and building neatly and efficiently” explains Damien on his career shift. “Initially, I thought I could offer help to some friends to install their kitchen and that spread. I ended up doing a few kitchens while stood down from flying.”
When asked about how he first heard of goCabinets, Damien said,” A friend said, ‘Oh, I’ve got a goCabinets account. Sign in and have a look at my drawings and see what I should do.’ And so I did. Between us, we sorted out the drawings and that was the first kitchen.”
Damien finds the best feature of goCabinets to be the instant online quoting. “The fact that you can design from home, manipulate and not get charged for changing your quote is great. Once you learn the system you can swap the doors and go ‘What does that cost me?’ I can swap from Blum to cheaper hinges and see what the difference is. You can swap finishes as many times as you want because you don’t feel like you’re making the manufacturer redo the plans 100 times.”
