Something that substantial should be decided by all affected parties I would think. Our kitchen was pretty much designed by me, with my wife’s contribution coming in the form of yaes and naes .

Am I being fussy?
As @withered_preacher says no. I'm assuming that the £2.5k is labour for fitting it and doesn't include units appliances sinks worktops etc. Its a lot of money and something you have to live with for a long time.
I would feel pretty uncomfortable fitting a kitchen for a client in the basis of a couple of texts. At the very least I would want some kind of layout drawing, but would prefer the client to have signed off on comprehensive plans that include things like socket locations as well as a render of what the finished kitchen should look like. Even with a good plan stuff can go wrong and things may need to be changed but you have a solid starting point. As the old saying goes "fail to plan, plan to fail"

The kitchen has been part fitted. Cupboards on walls and base units. Everything came pre assembled.
The quote seems to have been back of a fag packet. The guy who came out fitted a kitchen for friend of the OH. The OH never met him, so has a few texts on what she wanted. It is amazing how timid she gets in these situations, I didn't get involved as the OH wanted to it and this kitchen is becoming a saga as it has been a year in the sorting.
Was looking at DIY kitchens but OH turned them down as they don't have a show room where she can see the kitchens and a weekend trip was out of the question. I wanted Ikea, as buy it there and then.
