In what order do I change my kitchen?

Looking for advice on any of you with more experience in this than me!

I am looking to do up my kitchen (cheaply). I need to-

  1. Paint/spray kitchen cupboards a different colour
  1. Replace (or possibly cover with that magic roll stuff) the work surfaces.
  1. Replace kitchen sink
  1. Change flooring

Any idea which order I do those things in?

Replace sink and re seal.

Upgrade kitchen doors but not that fablon stuff. Either respray professionally or replace with new.

Replace flooring.

Job done!

Tiles, worktops and sink all at same time. ( all connected) Then cupboard doors, then flooring.

Thank you so much! I had thought cupboards would be at the start, so am clearly clueless!

Scrap my first reply, i didn't seen the tiles bit when i posted.

We did worktop and sink as one job.
Then tiles
We didn't replace flooring or paint units but I'd do the floor last.

Cupboards, sink, worktops, floor

Op, tiles and worktop connected as tiles butt up to worktop. Sink also fitted into worktop so you really need all doing at same time.

Remove old tiles first (or get a geezer to do it) then have new worktop and sink installed on
same day at same time by the one person.

Then have fresh new tiling around new work top.

Then get your cupboards sorted.

Then pour large wine and enjoy your lovely new kitchen!

Ooops, don't pour your wine until your flooring is down! 🤭
