Dh is coming home for lunch in 20 mins and I need to have some quick figures to hand to persuade him that we CAN afford to redo our kitchen now rather than later. It's quite a small box shape with 7 low cupboards (sink over two)and is generally in good nicj as it's only about 6 years old but very old fashioned and I need to know how much this would be:
worktops to cover all cupboards (and a bit extra to make a breakfast bar)- dh wants real oak but comparison of this and a nice laminate would be great
new stainless steel sink and mixer tap
cheapest new steel gas cooker with separate grill available (found one for £240)
Tile round sink and cooker or a stainless steel splashback for above cooker
We're going to sand the doors and repaint them and put on new handles- can anyone convince me that this isn't a huuuge and horrible job?
Please please give me lots of suggestions! I was thinking of painting the doors a dark cream colour and the walls a very light grey with new (yep) steel handles...any thoughts? FIngers crossed I can persuade him, as he'll do most of the work- doesn't trust me to do it to his high (picky) standards
TIA
