How big is the kitchen? I took accurate measurements in to wickes after playing around with the online designers from other companies. The salesman was good and gave advice on which bits fit exactly and the correct amount of blank panels I would need (for example knowing I only needed one end piece which I could cut vertically into 2 to go either side of the washing machine. That saved £30 for a panel).
I fit a 3.5m×3m from wickes for £4500. This included inbuilt cooker, dishwasher, gas hob, extractor, all of the floor tiles, wall tiles, adhesive, sink and taps. Think it came to 6k, they had a discount on and I got another few hundred knocked off. One thing to mention is that I was left with no spare major parts at the end, meaning the bloke calculated it perfectly (just a few hinges and shelf supports). Two friends who got kitchens with B&Q and Homebase has £300-500 worth of bits that came but weren't needed. If you paid them to fit it I'm sure those bits would've gone back in the van......

Morning kids. I got great advice on how to sort out my shower when I posted here last, so I'm hoping to get the same sort of advice for my kitchen.
I moved in a year ago and the place had clearly been let out to uncaring tenants for many years - caked in grease, hadn't been updated since the 80s, rat shit everywhere. Anyway we cleaned it up and got it functional but we really need to tear everything out and start again, from cupboards to tiling, the lot.
I'm on a very limited budget - I could probably chuck another four grand on my credit card but not much more. Do you guys have any ideas how I can do this?
