no i don’t think it will cost that, most of the carcasses are there, ill strip most of it out, have plumber and electrician friend on board and hoping to persuade my cousin to come and spend a day or so fitting the cabinets (i’ll assemble those) /filler panels etc (he’s a carpenter/kitchen fitter but booked out and a bit far away)
tiling i’ll do myself and all the painting and fitting the doors.
yes it would be 20k if you got a london firm in and just handed them the keys and a mood board for inspiration.
i’m targeted by just about everything at the mo as i’m trying to budget for a refurb and doing lots of browsing, though instagram is handy for local carpentry/furniture makers who do some nice work. and plumbers who like doing neat work and showing it off.
custom fronts look reasonable but it’s the non-wood surfaces i’m not sure about. place we looked at had a Pluck kitchen and they bumped the price up accordingly (we all know it doesn’t work like that) i just couldn’t see the value in it.
