Hi all

Is there anyone out there that can help me with information with regards Pineapple kitchens.

I have heard it might be in liquidation or not

Thanks

It is with deep regret that the company has gone into liquidation, all clients will be contacted directly.  Please address your concerns privately via your legal representative. Please note that at this time all employees were made redundant immediately with no access to company property or communications and are therefore no longer employed. My sympathy and apologies to everyone impacted by the problems caused by the closure, and as the company owner, I alone am taking full responsibility for the difficult circumstances that have resulted. I ask you to refrain from publicly shaming anyone linked to Pineapple and want to work through the issues individually with my clients when possible.

I am really surprised that they have gone into liquidation. They did work for us autumn 2022 on our bathrooms and kitchen and appeared super busy, maybe too busy as we were never sure when workmen were coming back!  But the work was finished to a high standard, if a week or so later than planned.

The quote he gave me for my kitchen, I'm surprised he had any jobs at all. A full 5,500 euros more than the guy we used for the same kitchen.

We were the opposite! His quote was significantly cheaper than the other two quotes we got.

Hi, I was recommended Miquel by Almeria homes. Don't have his mobile as he speaks little English. Louie from Almeria homes did all my translating for me. You could contact Louie at his office in Albox. I was very happy with the kitchen and price.

This is Miguel's business
