Full Kitchen Refurbishment
A full kitchen refurbishment transforms the most used room in your home — replacing units, worktops, flooring, splashbacks and often plumbing and electrical layouts simultaneously. It is a significant project that requires careful project management to ensure tradespeople work in the right sequence.
The cost of a full kitchen refurbishment varies enormously depending on kitchen size, unit quality and the extent of structural changes. Getting 3 quotes from experienced kitchen fitters helps you understand the true market rate and what is included in each price.
What affects the cost of Full Kitchen Refurbishment?
Prices vary between professionals depending on several factors. Getting 3 quotes gives you a clear picture of the market rate for your specific job.
- Kitchen size — more units, worktops, and appliances means more fitting time and materials.
- Materials and finish — solid wood or handleless cabinets cost significantly more than standard flat-pack.
- Plumbing and electrics — moving the sink, adding an island, or rewiring adds specialist costs.
- Appliances — whether appliances are supplied and installed as part of the quote affects the total.
- Existing condition — stripping out a solid old kitchen or dealing with hidden issues adds labour time.

Tips for a better quote
A clear brief leads to more accurate quotes and fewer surprises on the day. Here’s how to prepare:

- Note access requirements — parking restrictions, working hours, or key-holding arrangements.
- Clarify materials — confirm whether you expect the professional to supply materials or labour only.
- Ask about a guarantee — many professionals offer a workmanship guarantee; it is worth asking upfront.
