One of RTE’s most popular TV programmes returns to our screens tonight when Dermot Bannon’s Room to Improve is aired at 9.30pm.
The first episode focuses on the renovation of an old farmhouse in Tullamore, as a young couple do up a property with particular significance to them.
The finished project is once again sure to be a real triumph.
Like any build, an amount of different suppliers and tradespeople were involved in the project – but the kitchen is the work of Hanlon Kitchens from Aghaboe.
Danny Hanlon and his team featured previously on the programme when they fitted the kitchen in a home in Rathfarnham in Dublin.
But they’re expected to get more air time in this episode as Bannon and the cameras visited Hanlon Kitchens factory and showrooms in Aghaboe.
Hanlon, whose business operates from the back of his parents house in Aghaboe, set up Hanlon Kitchens almost 20 years when he was in his early 20s.
He now supplies kitchens all over the country and employs more than 10 people.
In 2019 he won the Laois Enterprise award and represented the county at the National Enterprise awards. John Mulholland, CEO of Laois County Council, praised Hanlon at the time of the awards as “an example of someone keeping rural enterprise alive”.
Room to Improve will air on RTE tonight at 9.30pm
