Hi,
I know there are tons of threads on kitchens but nothing exactly fits this and anything similar is from a few years ago...
Basically I bought a house with a 5m by 3m kitchen dining room with a kitchen that had it's day about 15 years ago. I just got a quote from homebase for 10K-12K for everything including tiling the room, sorting the electrics, the plumbing and general installation such as cutting corner units to fit a pipe column in the corner. The kitchen roughly includes an integrated washing machine/ dishwasher/ ceramic hob/ double oven/ small sink/ extractor hood (not getting the expensive brands either). It's a high gloss white finish.
The guts of the kitchen will run along the 3m wall with a bit around the corner running for approx 2m. It also includes a 140cm kitchen island that will include a set of wide drawers and an under counter built in fridge. I guess the big attraction for somebody like me is that I don't have to track down a good plumber/ tiler etc. However I was a bit surprised at the price and I would be really grateful to get some opinions on it from anyone with more experience or expertise in the area. I think we can probably get something similar kitchen wise from cash and carry for circa 5K but then it will be up to us to arrange the tiling in advance and the plumbing etc.
Also I would be interested to hear if anyone has any experience of homebase recently. Thanks in advance.
