Kitchen fitting: what the job involves

Assembling and fitting a kitchen: units level and square, worktops jointed and sealed, doors and drawers aligned, sink, hob and appliances cut in. A kitchen fitter coordinates with a plumber, a registered electrician and, for a gas hob, a Registered Gas Installer, whose work cannot be done by the fitter alone.

How long it takes: Usually one to two weeks for a typical kitchen including the other trades; the fitting itself is often three to five days.

What jobs on Talqero came to

Not enough comparable jobs yet to publish a range here. Talqero shows a price range only once at least five comparable jobs, agreed prices or offers exist — a range from fewer would describe a handful of jobs, not the market. Post your job and compare the offers you get.

What affects the price

  • Number of units and whether they arrive flat-packed or rigid
  • Worktop material and the joints and cut-outs needed
  • Moving the sink, cooker or gas and electrical points
  • Integrated appliances, larder units and tall housings
  • Removing and disposing of the old kitchen
  • Walls and floors that are out of level
  • VAT: building work on a home is charged at the reduced rate of 13.5% by a VAT-registered business — unless the materials come to more than two-thirds of the price, when Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the goods rate to the whole job. Ask whether a quote includes VAT.

What to ask before you choose

  • Can I see photographs of similar finished work?
  • Are materials included, and to what specification?
  • Who removes the old doors, units or offcuts?
  • For a garden room: does it fall within the planning exemption as designed?
  • Is VAT included?

What the work usually involves

  • Hanging internal doors, skirting and architrave
  • Fitted wardrobes and shelving
  • Kitchen fitting from flat-pack or a supplier
  • Decking, stairs, bannisters and attic flooring

What to put in your task

  • What you want built or repaired, with rough measurements
  • Whether you have bought the materials or want them supplied
  • Photos of the space
  • Any finish you have in mind — painted, oiled, stained
