Earlier this month, Tom was awarded Kitchen Fitter of the year for the second time, highlighting the businesses 'top-tier finishes, ethos and charitable efforts'.
Tom said: "This year the award was sponsored by Howdens Joinery."
"I regularly buy kitchens from Howdens so to be recognised as their fitter of the year is a truly special moment for me.

"To be awarded this for a second time is a genuine shock and testament to the hard work and dedication that I put into each project."
