    We just got a new kitchen. Got a good price from from howdens - 2.6k. However once you take into account appliances, fitting it goes up. Fitters charged £80 per day. We did get walls plasterboarded etc, because the plaster was knacked. New french doors, radiator as no heating. It came in at about 8.5k, but we got a new room for that.

    The agent has said it's structurally sound and not damp

    WOW the estate agents in my area are just estate agents but in your area they also seem to be qualified buildings surveyors and damp experts! ;)

    I have just been quoted £4600 for an completely new central heating system and the total removal of all the old system for a three bed house. I paid £6000 for a kitchen (including appliances floor coverings and new ceiling/lighting) in 2009 and £4500 for a bathroom the same year, although the bathroom was a bit complicated hence the price.
