How much would it cost to do up a small kitchen?

[pinksunsets]

Including labour costs... And I mean very small. It's around 2.45m x 2m. It's so small the the IKEA kitchen planner won't let me plan it online properly so I can't get an accurate quote. Would love to hear from people who have experience with small kitchens/have done their kitchens recently!

anywhere between 1000 and 50000 pounds depending on spec

Measure, measure and measure again.

then plan it out with paper and pencil - you don’t need a fancy online planner. Squared/graph paper will do.

there is a variety of unit widths and depths, and you can customise to an extent (eg making a cupboard unit shallower if you have a protruding wall piece. Play around with it
until you fed happy, then take it into the shop. As a pp said, keeping the appliances etc in the same place helps to keep down the cost - but check that you have enough sockets around the kitchen and units as it would be a god time to add more if needed.

we had our (granite, but they did many more options) worktop fitted by a separate company, who did a great job.

Look for other ideas to help with a smaller space eg I have a Quooker, and in built microwave which reduces space on the worktop.

Thanks! I'm not looking for something super expensive as ideally I'd like to move in a few years. Honestly I'd love to move now but I don't like the idea of a bigger mortgage at such high rates. So I'm looking for something cheap but still stylish so thinking IKEA might fit the bill! I've heard their appliances are quite decent too.

IKEA kitchen that size you should be able to do for 2-3000 including appliances

By the way our last rental house had a very plain ikea white kitchen with stainless steel runners and I loved it, was well built , sleek and very practical

Do you need tiling and flooring sorted too?

Yes I would need tiling and flooring too @WheelsUp!

That's a manageable price!

We have a slightly bigger kitchen at 2.9 x 2.6

Ours came in at 10k for new kitchen (diy kitchens), laminate worktops, some appliances (oven, induction hob, built in microwave, dishwasher), tiled flooring (for kitchen and small hall), plastered walls and ceiling, move of electrics, moving some plumbing, all fitting of the kitchen.

Thanks @OhhhhhhhhBiscuits! That's very helpful.

On the Ikea kitchen planner, keep your width correct but make the kitchen dimensions longer just make sure the units fit into the actual length of your kitchen. You can add in all their appliances, worktop, sink, tap etc to give you a ballpark figure.

Alternatively look at DIY kitchens (lots of reviews on YouTube) they are ready built and have the in between sizes that Ikea doesn't ie 350, 450 base cabinets etc.

Anything you can do yourself or get anyone else in to help with like flooring, LVT (vinyl plank that interlocks together) is easy to lay, tiling is a bit more tricky.

Yep, also recommend DIY Kitchens. They have a great online planner, which is easy to you use once you have a play with it. Remember to factor in worktops.
I've just been to their showroom today (nr Doncaster) to finalise my new kitchen.

There is also a great FB group where you can get lots of help from other buyers etc

We had a small kitcheN redone for £3k, that only included a dishwasher and extractor fan as we kept our other appliances. From Howdens. We kept the sink and cooker in same place which kept cost down. Designed it ourselves on paper!

Just came on to say the DIY kitchens planner is excellent for tricky layouts. We went with Howdens in the end, which we're quite happy with. Our previous kitchen was 15 years old from IKEA and still in decent shape so I'd recommend them too.
Our kitchen is long (5m) and narrow, but oddly shaped. The entire build came in at £17000 which included a week of airbnb, new flooring, plastering, all new appliances and a fancy light fixture. The kitchen itself was £7300 and the builder £4700. This was for a bog standard kitchen with laminate worktops.
