Hi firstly apologies if this is in the wrong forum - if so please tell me and i will repost.
Ok, so I intend on undertaking a full kitchen replacement in the new year ---- where do I start??
I need everything replacing from the floor (currently laminate - which goes under the units --god only knows what horros are beneath it!) - to sockets being moved and added, plumbing replaced, radiators moved and pipes being chased into walls (therefore walls being plastered!)
I had a quote in june for £2950 (inc was removing old kitchen, removing coving, plastering walls and ceiling, reloacting electrical points, fit new kitchen, lay 16sq mtrs of floor tiles) Since then the design has changed slightly - will probably replace the floor with laminate not tiles but will also need extra electrical sockets and some extra units to be fitted
So - where do I start - ceiling? electrical points - rip out kitchen? Thanks for any help!!

Does the quote include supplying the kitchen as well as fitting it?

A simple guide: It starts with a kitchen plan and appliance positioning. When you have that you can rip out, run any underfloor plumbing and wastes and get the flooring in. Cut in new electrical sockets, lighting etc. Some of this will be run to first fix as you may need cabinets in to finish off final fix. Make good walls and ceiling and paint. Get a datum line around the kitchen to ensure your cabinets are all level. Get appliances in and fit worktops doing final fixes on hob and sink. Fit cornice and pelmets and tile and grout splash backs.
So decide where you are getting the cabinets and have them prepare a plan first, it all leads from there.
