Pine, Mahogany and Teak. I know teak is probably the best but what are the cons and pros of each when it comes to Kitchen Cupboard applications.
Also in terms of varnishing in a dark oak color, what are the possibilities of such with each.
Recently did my kitchen in appamat it’s a hard wood not as hard as teak but cheaper and if you are using colored paint this is better if you going for a wood look then teak or mahogany is better
This is my recently done kitchen

I was looking at PVC for the doors, as a low-maintenance option

QPSL did my custom steel windows....nobody else understood my design or was willing to work with me on something different to what I wantedd. Dealt with a guy named Indar. Several visits, tons of time discussing the design etc
Wasn't the cheapest, but we got exactly what we wanted
