How much did your new kitchen cost?

[Marmiteymuffin]

I know this is a bit of a 'how long is a piece of string ' question. But I am just trying to get a sense. We are offering on a run down house and trying to work out our offer. We don't need to extend externally. It would be removing a wall or 2 to combine kitchen and dining room and then refitting kitchen etc. Is it like 20 grand or 60 grand or more? I've simply no idea!

Ours was a small kitchen and we only replaced units, retiled, new cooker (not posh). We did have to sort out the floor though, as it had collapsing floor joists, so significant work and obvs a new floor. £10000. The units were from Howdens and they're OK but are starting to look worn on the odd drawer already - 4 years old! Honestly, you get what you pay for and don't underestimate the fitting costs as opposed to just the kitchen purchase cost.

Wall removal costs depends on if structural or not, if structural 3-5k depending on beam load, structural engineer fees and whether party wall agreement is needed. Party wall agreement add on a bit more

kitchen half decent 10-20k depending on size and spec, can be done for less though

I’m in wales, this will be more for london type areas

Hope this helps!

Kept same layout, no new appliances as I hate built in - had them years ago and never again - open plan from kitchen leading into utility area so decent size and more than just kitchen of course - 4 bedrooms, detached.

Another high gloss but much better quality this time. Rangemaster and hood moved slightly, quite a bit of new plastering on walls and ceilings, all units removed, slate tiles removed from floor needing flooring to be replaced underneath and then tiles replaced with Karndean, all new skirting boards and door surrounds, all wall tiles removed and replaced, kept original light fittings. Had a new double socket installed. Lots of lovely wall and lower cupboards with gorgeous worktops. New granite sink and chrome tap - Not Quooker type - new blinds and complete redecoration. Used a Kitchen and bathroom specialist who we had used for our 2 bathrooms previously. Total cost just over £15k including skips and which did include a repeat client discount. (We expected it to be much more although we didn’t have granite or quartz worktops either. Ours are some sort of special resin and 38mm deep.)

Had it done last May and took 12 days in total. We love it!

It totally depends on the size of the kitchen. A brand new kitchen will be expensive.

We're looking at replacing our kitchen soon but will probably just buy one from marketplace and either paint it or get it wrapped. My husband is a joiner and his friend wraps kitchens.

People sell almost brand new kitchens on Facebook market place sometimes with appliances. You can get a full kitchen for under £1k.

Ok thanks for these responses. It is really helpful reading even though I know it's hugely varied. It does seem we could maybe do it within our current budget. So far they are rejecting the offer, so we will need to up a bit.

Removing a load bearing wall we were quoted 15-20k 18m ago in London

Our kitchen and utility cost about £15k including all units appliances fixtures and fittings. Again London 18m ago

Removal of old kitchen and fitting of new, including tiling was about £9k a couple of years ago (not London). Things have gone up a bit since then I think.

It's difficult to know exactly, but usually if new kitchens are properly needed then houses are usually priced with that in mind. It's easier to negotiate on unexpected things that come up on the survey. That said, it depends how desperate they are to sell in this market. Good luck!🙂

I had a solid wood kitchen installed 5 years ago, painted in my choice of colour (matched to F&B) with island, butler sink, tap and wooden worktops (large kitchen) for around £8k. Not sure of installation costs as the builder did it as part of our extension. All in, with fitting and range cooker, it was around £10k. Check out pine furniture land. They're excellent 👌

I have a kitchen that consisted of:

5m run of cabinets (base & wall) and a 2m run of cabinets (base only), joining in a corner
20sq metres of grey ceramic floor tiles plus all the understuff & grout
a 1m RangeMaster electric range cooker with induction hob
1m extractor fan
Ceramic sink, swan tap
White quartz composite (fake granite) worktops

Mine was mid-range Wickes, oak doors, and the least expensive ceramic floor tiles I could find, No other appliances. and that still came to £10k, before installation.

33k with fitting and and appliances

Isn't the house priced taking into consideration the condition of the interior?

I replaced my kitchen two years ago. Hiwdens with separately sourced counter, with integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher. Stone countertops and integrated sink. Quooker tap (a must have). Kept the cooker from before. Fitted it was £25k.

Don't forget flooring, lighting. Will removing the wall need electrics moving? Radiators moving and replaced? Or will you go UFH? Plastering/redecoration of the whole space too. It can add up.

Midlands based, massive kitchen and laundry room, handmade in solid wood, £25k fitted excluding appliances.

My sibling's large kitchen from Howdens recently cost £25k including appliances and utility room.

Yes, it's reasonably priced for the condition it's in. But we are working up to our maximum offer and I guess I wanted an idea whether the money leftover is enough to do the work that needs doing.

I have on one side just floor units no wall units, 6m long
then on the other side i have 6 tall wardrobes, housing the fridge , larder, and storage options
a rangemaster, gas cooker 110cm
wine fridge,
quooker
insinkerator,
Cube
external motored extractor fan
high white quartz splashback 6m long
double butler sink
white quartz worktop

appliances cost £10k
worktops and splashback £12k
handpainted wardrobes in F&B paint with oak interiors £29k

£5k fir a new kitchen + plastering (walls and ceiling), floor.
We kept some appliances (dishwasher and fridge).

It’s not a big kitchen though.
And we are fitting it ourselves (would have been £2k more for the fitting)

Great to read these. Husband is adamant we can put in a big new kitchen for 3k. 🙄
