Kitchen Fitting

New kitchen in a new single story extension

Anonymous user 09/03/2024 - 2.55 PM

I am considering a new single story kitchen extension (full width of the back) and as result will need a new kitchen. The builder i am considering going with includes fitting the kitchen as part of the price - if we supply it. I will be looking for a fairly cheap kitchen which naturally looks nice and is well built up to about £2/3k as once the new extension is done we will be looking to sell the property to make some money on it (we will obvisouly use the kitchen for a few months) My question is - where would you suggest the best places are to get a resonable kitchen. I have thought about places like Home Base / Wicks / B&Q - is it worth using their free kitchen design as i dont really have a clue? Or would it be better to get the builder to take off the price of fitting the kitchen and get a specialist tradesperson who can supply and fit the kitchen?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Most builders have trade accounts with kitchen suppliers so you could ask the builder to supply and fit, this way you would get a good quality kitchen planned by the suppliers for free, and fitted looking the part. I use Howdens first class. Hope this helps.

I was going to say exactly the same as 'Heat Right' above! I generally use Howdens too , there not the cheapest for the cabinets. but they are already made up as complete cabinets. so no flat pack assembly. this reduces your labour/fitting costs. so overall there as cheap as buying from B+Q etc...but easier as they also have everything in stock, so no 4 week waiting times... a good builder or kitchen filter with have a small kitchen fitted within a week.
