I'm thinking of getting the structure of the loft done by professionals then do all the fittings and finishing myself... to save money... crazy talk?

This is my plan for our kitchen. I'm happy with a box, I can take over from there with judicious use of trades.

We really wanted a nice modern German style kitchen but they were all £30k+. Did the entire thing ourselves in the end, from an empty box to a full kitchen, plumbing and all. Electrics were easy as I had all the circuits available from old fitted kitchen. Really proud of it, and it came to £4k in the end, including all the high spec appliances.

£4K for all the kitchen and appliance is cost saving magic!
How long did it take you?

Our kitchen units were about £5k (about £1500 of it were expensive corner posts, curved plinthes, curved units).
Worktops and appliances cost a fair bit more however.
