Frequently Asked Questions about Kitchen Installation
The total cost depends on the size of your kitchen, the complexity of unit layouts, and the materials you choose. Labour prices start from £65 per unit for cabinet fitting and £180 for worktop installation. A typical 8–12 unit kitchen (labour only) generally ranges from £900 to £1,800. Custom joinery, backsplash fitting, removal of old units and appliance integration are all quoted separately. We’ll provide a fully itemised, labour-only quote so you can compare “kitchen fitting cost” without hidden fees.
A standard kitchen installation (8–12 units) usually takes between 2–5 days of on-site work. Flat-pack assembly and unit fitting are typically completed in 1–2 days, worktop cutting and fitting on day 2–3, and final trims, splashback, and appliance integration on days 3–5. We plan each phase to minimise downtime: your kitchen remains functional wherever possible and we’ll always clean up at the end of each day.
To ensure a smooth kitchen installation process, please clear all items from cabinets and countertops and ensure clear access to the kitchen (driveway or hallway paths). We’ll protect your floors and furniture with dust sheets.

Yes—our team can fit ovens, hobs, extractors, and dishwashers into your new kitchen layout. We’ll ensure each appliance is level, correctly aligned with cabinets, and fully integrated with your worktops and splashbacks. While we’ll position and secure the appliances, final plumbing and electrical hook-ups must be carried out by your certified plumber/electrician to comply with regulations.
We provide a 12-month labour warranty on all installation and fitting services, covering any realignment or refixing work at no extra charge. Manufacturer warranties on cabinets, worktops, and appliances remain valid and we’ll register them on your behalf where possible. If you encounter any issues, simply contact us and we’ll arrange a follow-up visit as part of our “new kitchen installation” aftercare.
Our goal is a stress-free “renovation kitchen” experience:
- We protect floors, furniture and appliances with robust coverings.
- We work standard hours (8am–5pm weekdays) and keep noise to a minimum.
- Daily clean-up and waste removal ensure your home remains livable.
