Frequently Asked Questions

No, in fact, we are highly competitive with some of New Zealand's most cost effective joinery options. However - we provide designer products of the highest quality.

Walls generally aren't perfectly flat, which is why bench top providers do site measures and template the bench tops before manufacturing. Our laminate bench tops can be planed down by your installer if required for a snug fit against your walls. All of our other bench tops come complete with large subway tiles that match the bench top to line the walls above in either an upstand fashion or as a splash back. Alternatively, other tiles or a glass splash back will have the same effect. So if your walls are slightly out of plumb - your secret will be safe with us!

We can do this by the use of our vast catalogue of pre-drawn designs and our different style ranges. This drastically reduces the time our designers spend customising each project. Secondly, we manufacture all aspects of your products in-house. We have our own joinery factory, bench top factory, and a paint shop - which reduces costs as we don't outsource, and allows us to paint your products in any colour you like.

We service all Kiwi's, nationwide. All aspects of your Pop Kitchens journey are done online via virtual meetings. We don't mind if you wear your pyjamas!

All Pop Kitchens products come with a five year warranty to the original purchaser for craftsmanship. Our tapware, hardware and fittings come with their own warranties direct from our suppliers also.

We use a two pack lacquer system, which consists of a water based paint with a hardener added to it. This is the most durable paint system available on the market.

We make laminate, engineered stone, granite, and ceramic bench tops in our factory at Pop Kitchens Headquarters. We source our stainless steel bench tops in Northland, New Zealand. We do not offer granite or ceramic bench tops outside of Northland, as they are much more fragile when it comes to shipping long distance. Therefore if you wish to have granite or ceramic bench tops and you are outside of Northland, we source a bench top provider that is local to you to make this happen.

The care and maintenance of your products is simple - warm soapy water and a damp microfibre cloth, then dry with a dry cloth. That's all you need! Contrary to popular belief, the vast majority of cleaning products can contain bleach and solvents, silicone and abrasives which can impair lacquered surfaces, and citric acid which can cause rust spots.

Your Pop Kitchens products can be painted in any colour under the sun. Find your favourite colour swatches at your local hardware store or paint shop, and if you're unsure - we are here to help you with this journey.
