It all started back in Cornwall, where Andy was busy fitting high-end kitchens for people who dreamed of having the perfect space to cook, eat, and gather with family and friends. But as talented as the designers were at creating beautiful pictures, Andy often found that when it came to installing the kitchen, things didn’t quite go as planned. Frustrated with the lack of practicality of the kitchens he was fitting, Andy took matters into his own hands and taught himself to use CAD programs to create designs that not only looked great on paper, but actually worked in real life.

Fast forward to 1999, Andy met Nikki, a designer with a keen eye for detail and a knack for turning dreams into reality. Together, they moved to Leighton Buzzard and founded Wood Wizard as a sole trader before becoming a limited company in 2004. With their combined skillsets, they quickly earned a reputation for delivering high-quality kitchens with a personal touch. Andy’s knowledge across tradesmanship has allowed him to help customers realise the potential of their spaces in ways that other kitchen specialists may not. Whether you need a like-for-like replacement of your kitchen or have more ambitious plans like transforming your kitchen into an open-plan living space through (re)moving walls and building extensions, Grand Union Kitchens can help you.
