Prices are typical 2026 estimates and vary by job, condition and location.
Where the money goes
- Units and doors — the biggest single cost; solid timber and bespoke add most.
- Worktops — laminate is cheapest; quartz and stone are premium.
- Appliances — integrated and high-end brands cost more.
- Labour — fitting, plus plumber, electrician and tiler.
- Extras — islands, larders, lighting and splashbacks add up.
Should you move the layout?
Keeping sinks, hobs and appliances in the same place keeps costs down. Moving plumbing, gas and electrics — or knocking through walls for open-plan living — adds significant labour and may need structural work, so weigh the cost against the benefit.
How to save on a new kitchen
- Keep the existing layout where possible.
- Mix premium doors with standard carcasses.
- Choose laminate or compact worktops over stone.
- Reuse appliances that are still in good condition.
- Get three itemised quotes and check what fitting includes.
