Estimated cost of kitchen install
Discussion
Can anyone help with a ballpark figure for the cost of a kitchen install please? I only have one quote at present and I'm finding it difficult to get anyone else to quote! I just want to know whether the current quote is of the right order.
It's to rip out the existing, then install:
- 5 base units
- 2 integrated appliances (all plumbing in place)
- 1 oven tower
- 5 wall units, once to include built-in microwave
- 2 worktops, one will have sink and hob cutouts required
At present the quote I have does not include any tiling, flooring, power or lighting costs, so if I stick to that then I get a decent comparison. The work is in the South East (I now rates vary across the country).
TIA.

That sounds very similar size to my last kitchen. I ripped everything out myself (that's the easy bit) so you have to factor that back in but it took one guy 2 - 3 days and I paid him £500 to fit it all back in then a separate electrician, plumber and tiler.
This is likely to be on the low side.

Yes, I wouldn't have any issue doing the rip-out myself.
Current (only) quote is higher than anything mentioned here so far! I thought it seemed pricey.
What was it and how did they justify it? How many men and how many days? Current (only) quote is higher than anything mentioned here so far! I thought it seemed pricey.
My guy under estimated and I ended up helping him for a few hours it should have been another half day.

£1000 max.
One guy will do that in 3ish days if he is any good.
Op hasn't said the type of worktop I.e weight or shape. Aren't some of them heavy so need 2 people.One guy will do that in 3ish days if he is any good.

Are the Worktops joined / mitred?
Who is removing all the waste?
Assuming there is an extractor, is it to recirculate or vent to outside. And if outside is the hole already there?
I paid £1200 7 years ago, 4x 900 units, 9x 600 units, plus wall units, plinths, skirting etc.
No plumbing, electrics, tiling or work tops in that fitting price.
It was probably the cheapest part of doing the kitchen, but imo, the most important.
A good fitter will make a cheap kitchen look great. A bad one can ruin the whole thing.
