Do you add the building works to the total to get a £40k kitchen?
We're a bit lucky there in that our boiler, main sinks and white goods (apart from dishwasher) are in the utility room and I plan to leave them there.

No, In my mind a kitchen cost would be cabinets, worktop directly related electrics and plumbing, kitchen specific redecoration/tiling and white goods, hobs and fitting.
I guess if it was minor structural works like knocking back a wall/arches that could be included?The kitchen quotes you would get would just be cabinets/appliances/fitting/worktop though.

For example our kitchen approx cost:
Howdens kitchen units and appliances - £6700
Fitting - £2000
Quartz Worktop templating and fitting - £3100
Other white goods and appliances hobs/extractors - £3000
Estimate of directly related Kitchen related gas/electrics (including extra line from fuse box for induction hob) - £750Total £15550.
Could have gone way over the top with shiny gaggenau appliance etc, but tried to keep to £15000 budget, having a friend giving me a great discount at Howdens helped us budget in a nice Quartz worktop.
Overall cost of gas and electrics is much more though, with underfloor heating, new boiler in new location.
Plus the Zinc roof, and the rest of the extension...Big skylights are awesome though, definitely get one. In hindsight, maybe I would go for one that could open, or smart glass.
I think they do smart aftermarket film though.

If you want someone to bounce some ideas off and get advice on best use of land, then definitely an architect.
Also kitchens and associated work costs loads of money.
