Had a few guys in to quote now on our kitchen (10 floor units, 4 wall units, solid wood worktop). We are buying all the stuff ourselves.

Best price so far is £3200 for all labour..

- two walls need replastering
- retiling floor/walls
- disposal of old kitchen
- adding new sockets, oven supply, downlights, light pelmet
- adding/moving plumbing for sink, washing machine and dishwasher
- removing a radiator
- capping old gas pipe and running new pipe to hob
- polypipe-style underfloor heating (maybe electric)
- fitting units and worktop, sink etc

The kitchen is only about 6m x 3m so it is not a huge room.
£3200 seems like a lot, but if you start totalling the man-days I suppose it can quickly add up! We are near-ish London.

Should I continue the merry-go-round of quotes ?

Should I be expecting a breakdown by task? None of the quotees have done so.

B&Q wanted £5500 ! plus the kitchen !
