To transplant a kitchen from one property to another

The biggest problem with this I 9 times 10 a kitchen I design for that particular room and would highly suggest against this as problems will arise more then normal. If your wantig to save cost I suggest revamp with new doors, end panels and worktops can be 1/4 of the cost and just as impressive.

Before you attempt to transfer a kitchen Check it is still available as it is very likely you will need some extra bits Planning the layout is also very important to see how it interrogates into new location Allow 2 days to dismantle carefully and close up services Then approx 5 days to refit depending on spec

Go with what your heart desires. Ask yourself this. Do you want a brand new hand picked kitchen, designed by yourself that you will be happy with because " Its what you wanted." or do you want someone elses second hand kitchen that was going in the bin, fitted (Badly, because it was designed for somewhere else.) to your flat. Now thats okay if your existing kitchen is falling apart, but it wont be done without some sort of design flaw or compromise, but if that is better than spending money on a kitchen then go for it, but the fit will most likely be more expensive and you might find it hard to find a fitter to take it on.

The main thing is to find out what make is the kitchen so you can purchase just the items are necessary It will save you the money The second thing is to find not just a kitchen fitter but someone who is a cabinet maker In this case you have more chance to adjust your kitchen to new layout Also I agree that will be more easy for fitter if you will buy new worktops

Firstly the question was how much time would it take. Obviously that would depend on the size of the kitchen. I would also advise whether this is possible depending on the quality of the kitchen they would like moved. Generally speaking a rigid high quality kitchen it would be possible to reinstall at another location. Whilst a flat pack it would not be worth it. They would most probably require new worktops thought.
