# About Cocina en Tenerife

> Cocina en Tenerife designs, builds to measure and fits kitchens across the island with one team, a showroom of materials and a fixed quote in writing.

At Cocina en Tenerife we design, build to measure and fit kitchens all over the island. The same team stays with you from the first visit to the final adjustment, with a fixed quote in writing.

- **One team.** Design, manufacture and fitting are handled by the same people, who answer for the whole kitchen.
- **Made to measure.** Every unit is built to the measurements taken in your home, with no filler panels or forced-in units.
- **A showroom with real materials.** Doors, worktops and hardware are chosen by seeing and touching them in real light.
- **A fixed quote in writing.** Every item is itemised from the start, and any unexpected work is quoted separately before it is done.

Cocina en Tenerife is a company that designs, builds and installs made-to-measure kitchens on the island. As well as the kitchen, we coordinate the building work when it is needed: plumbing, electrics and wall and floor finishes as part of a single [kitchen renovation](https://cocinaentenerife.com/en/kitchen-renovation/).

## One team, from measure-up to fitting

The same people who measure your kitchen are the ones who design, build and fit it. That avoids the design saying one thing, the workshop understanding another and the fitter finding pieces that do not fit, a risk that appears when each stage is handled by a different company. When something needs adjusting, it is sorted out by someone who has known the project since day one.

It also means you have a clear point of contact from the first call. If a question comes up during the work or after fitting, you know who to call and that person has the full history of your kitchen in front of them.

## We build to measure

Every kitchen is built to the real measurements of the home, taken during the visit. Very little is standard in Tenerife homes: ceilings of different heights, walls out of square in the north, narrow kitchens in apartments in the south or pillars in the middle of the wall in flats in Santa Cruz and La Laguna. By building on the island, we adapt each unit to that space and correct whatever is needed on site. We explain it in more detail on the [made-to-measure kitchens](https://cocinaentenerife.com/en/custom-kitchens/) page.

## A showroom where you can see and touch the materials

In the showroom you can compare doors, worktops, handles and hardware in real light before deciding. A colour or a texture looks very different on a screen and in your hand, and a worktop is easier to choose when you can touch it. There we go through the 3D render of your project with you and adjust whatever is needed; the full process is on the [kitchen design](https://cocinaentenerife.com/en/kitchen-design/) page.

## A fixed quote in writing

The quote you sign itemises units, worktop, appliances, building work and fitting, each separately and with IGIC (the Canary Islands sales tax, 7 %) shown. If something unforeseen turns up during the work, such as a pipe in poor condition when the old kitchen comes out, we explain it and quote it separately before doing it. Nothing is added to the invoice without your go-ahead.

## We work across the whole island

We fit kitchens in the north and the south of Tenerife, in the metropolitan area and in the inland municipalities. Each area has its own conditions: the humidity and salt air on the coast, the strong sun in the south or the traditional houses in the north, and we choose materials with them in mind.

The kitchens we complete are published in the [projects](https://cocinaentenerife.com/en/projects/) section, and you can write to us from the [contact](https://cocinaentenerife.com/en/contact/) page to arrange a visit.
