I'm becoming increasingly annoyed at some of the very obscure tactics that some companies are used to ensure as little transparency as possible over the cost of a kitchen!
I've been (very grudgingly) given a price list for one kitchen I liked. Their assumption seemed to be that I just chose what I like regardless of having seen any costs per cabinet and they would give me a price.
Sorry - I like to pock cabinets based on my budget.
Then we come to installation!! There's 'basic' installation. It's half price this week. Then there's additional installation which is full price and for some companies does actually include the kitchen sink.
Why does the quotation to install the same kitchen vary by almost £2K.
Why do I have to pay a substantial 'deposit' which they all tell me is returnable just to get their installer to give me a quote?
Why is there always at least one item or activity missing from the quote as it 'will depend' on
Have been dealing with 2 companies so far - both have the same vague attitude. I am feeling a bit conned.
I just want to know - all inclusive - how much to transform my old kitchen into the new kitchen that they are so keen to draw for me on their computers.
Can I get a straight answer - No!
Where am I going wrong?
