How Much A New Kitchen Costs

The cost of a new kitchen can vary depending on how much work needs to be done. If you’re good at DIY and able to do some of the work yourself, you’ll be able to cut down on your kitchen costs. For example you can replace damaged floor tiles cheaply - installing them is quite simple if you know what you’re doing. If you can safely remove the old kitchen units yourself, then so much the better! Or if your wall needs plastering and you can do it yourself, you’ll shave pounds off the cost of a new kitchen.

Prices For Kitchens

You can expect to pay anything from a few hundred pounds for a few basic repairs to your old kitchen, to thousands for a new kitchen that’s been designed around your needs. It may be worth sitting down and working out how much cash you have to spare, then matching your kitchen design to your budget.

Kitchen Units

Buying your kitchen units from a large chain of shops will be less expensive than getting them at an individual specialist retailer, so make sure you shop around before parting with your hard-earned cash!

Costs Of Kitchen Installation

The cost of installing a kitchen depends on what labour is involved in the job. You could end up spending anything from £300 to £3,000 on labour. Kitchen worktops should cost around £150 for basic work surfaces right up to £3,000 for the very best. For new kitchen cabinets, you’ll be paying from £1,000 to a hefty £6,000. When paying for the appliances, there are all sorts of ways to cut down the costs - including being careful not to buy anything you really don’t need! If all your kitchen appliances need replacing, this could cost you a tidy sum of £1,500. If you can salvage anything from your old kitchen, you’ll be able to make more savings.
