Rough figures for getting a kitchen fitted?

[TotalChaos]

Was just wondering how much it was likely to cost for a kitchen fitter to come and fit 3 wall cupboards and an electric cooker?

Many thanks.

Depends on the wall. Is it true? Is it solid? Are the cupboards going on the same wall? If the wall is not straight and a stud wall, he may have to put battens up to fix the units onto it which is a slightly (although definitely not enormously) more cumbersome job but will involve lots of teeth-sucking and head-shaking.

Tbh, I think unless there is something seriously wrong with wall and/or cupboards it's half a day's work so whatever that amounts to in your local labour market. (I would honestly do the units myself and, if the cooker is a single oven it will have a plug so no skill needed there either - you will need electrician if it's a double one.)

thanks lalalonglegs. so are we talking a couple of hundred pounds then if we don't do it ourselves do you think?

If the cupboards are flat pack, the fitter will factor in the put them together time we put ours together ourselves (but not the doors on) and this saved quite a bit of money, as they do tend to take some time to put together, especially when theyv'e got bits missing from the pack , but anyway we found a fab guy who charges about £80 an hour sounds a lot but really isn't for an excellent joiner, and he does loads in that time, so I reckon no more than £300 quid with the cooker fitted, but as lala says if it's a plug you could do yourself, does worktop need cutting for cooker to fit? and do you have elec supply or was it gas previously? I usually find it's the bits you didn't think of that cost the most. Good luck, don't panic just think of your'e fab new look kitchen

thanks atwork, cupboards are already made up (pils are happy to give us their perfectly good but not up to their standards kitchen), that 80 quid ph ballpark figure is very useful indeed.
