Looking to get a new kitchen and bathroom. On a budget but needs to be nice. Have discounted B and Q due to reviews and like the look of Wickes plus I know a builder who is fussy and his stuff was from there so it can't be bad.
Had the plans done and got the quotes. I am happy with the price of the actual products but don't know if the installation is expensive or not. They have quoted £1703 for the bathroom, the suite including built in furniture, shower and screen. We have estimates for an extractor fan and other bits. DH will do the tiling but as there are so many tiles at the moment we are anticipating plastering needing to be done as we do not intend to tile as much of the bathroom that is done now. So it will end up costing about 2k we think.
The kitchen installation cost is £1920. This is for 16 units, work tops etc, sink. This room will also need skimming and we have been told to add another £100 for the upstand and splashback. So over 2k.
Do these prices sound reasonable? We also need to ask them if they are willing to move our washing machine into the shower room to make a utility room and install a radiator instead of the heated towel rail. The prices also include ripping out and disposing of the units/bathroom. I was going to see what local tradesman would quote but like someone pointed out, if they damage anything on installing it, we will have to pay out for another one. Wickes also guarantee their work for 2 years.
