I have a 60s house and did a ‘modest’kitchen about that size - white magnet units, cheap tiles, solid wood worktop , forbo floor - cost about 14k including Bosch appliances and a 60cm smeg gas range. Including striping out the old and replastering ceiling and screeding the floor.
So 10-15 for a kitchen , 1-2k for the opening and plastering 1-2k for new floor
Plus contingency / extras - £12-19k ?

Beginner question on home improvements requiring the use of professionals; how do you know whether you need an architect, technical drawings, room specialists or just a builder?
I've got a standard 1960's mid-terraced house (floor-plan below), I'd like to knock the wall between the kitchen & the lounge down, install new modest spec kitchen, rip up tile flooring for the whole of the downstairs & replace with something nicer (probably wood).
I'd like to get quotes from people but have no idea what the above would actually cost so don't want to waste people's time if we're miles away from the cash - could anyone take a guess on a ball-park figure please?
Phase two would be a single story extension out the back but we don't really need that for a few years whereas knocking through would make a definite improvement now.
