How much does a good quality decent size new kitchen cost?

[mymumsweats]

OK so I presume it's a bit of a how long is a piece of string thing but how much for:

• no structural work
• new units, tiling, oven and dishwasher, new sink, worktops etc.
• flooring for 30ft x 12ft room
• units along one side for about 15ft, one side of about 5ft and one side of about 8ft.

Probably mid-range to upper mid range - it needs to fit in a decent five bed house so not Smallbone of Devizes type of thing but not Moben/ MFI/ Ikea either.

Can anyone give me a really vague figure - perhaps based on how much theirs cost?

ok. so we are having

handmade units incl painting and fitting - 9.5k
(3.6 by 3.5 along two sides plus island unit)
dishwasher, fridge - 1k
flooring - slate, £25 per square metre
worktops - 2.5k
tiling - not sure yet!
aga. alot.

Thanks Her - more of the same from anyone else - gives me an idea of what to expect.

tbh, in my experience, a kitchen can cost as much as you want it to!

forgot electrics - £500

Depends a bit on what kind of worktop you go for, whether your floor is slate or lino etc.

I'd guess from your spec about £15-18k from John Lewis, based on what ours cost. Incidentally, we had a good experience with our JL kitchen fitted before Christmas, and got all of our appliances from them too.

HTH.

We had a small local firm do a very rough quote for a similar size kitchen, mid-range (individually made to order but not smallbone etc!) and it came out at £10k before fitting/appliances/granite etc...

£12k total

Comprising £4k labour (including removing old kitchen, replastering, retiling,electrics, moving boiler, enlarging window) and £8k for solid oak Second Nature units, NEFF double oven & gas hob, washing machine, dishwasher, plus Siemens fridge freezer, sink, taps, laminate worktops, wall tiles.

Kitchen is about 14ft x 8ft

The £12k is about twice as much as we originally thought it would cost and I'm shocked that we're spending so much and still aren't getting granite worktops! Oh well.

sk any questions I am a kitchen bore...

arghh most of my post disappeared.

basdically £12 - 15,000 upwards for your spec...

Oh and my new kitchen pics are on my profile.

Sorry for Hijack but Cece - how big is your kitchen diner (in meters please) we are thinking of extending to create a larger kitchen dining living room and trying to gage room for things and yours looks roomy.

4.2 m x about 9 m.

Kitchen end is about 4.2 x 3.8 m

The rest has dining table and sofa area in it.

OP here - I namechanged.

OK best get saving my money for this then...I think we thought it'd be less. Yikes.

Will look at your pics cece

Am swooning Cece. I really like it. So light and bright and clean looking.

Thanks

Well I economised a bit on the units. They are Wickes ones.

I spent the money on the worktop and posh appliances - things people see.

BTW I could show you a photo of what it looks like today but I would have to kill you The Bf-bar gets covered in clutter
