Who is beat for kitchens? We need 5!

savvy87

Hiya! I was wondering if anyone could share an experience with dealings with kitchen companies?

We need 5 however 3 of them may be salvageable in that the cupboards are fine just need new doors and worktop (these are from B&Q). I have arranged an appointment for them to come out however I don't know if they're the best/cheapest and whether I should get other companies in to quote.

Having never done a kitchen before I have no idea whether I should budget £5k per kitchen or £20k!!

Need it to be as cheap as possible whilst still looking lovely and good quality. So any tips are very welcome!

I've now done a couple of kitchens and a utility using units from DIY-kitchens. Really impressed with them, and for us came out cheaper than B&Q and the likes whilst being much better quality

Then it wont be B&Q.

Realistically, Howdens or MagnetTrade are your best bet.

Just a thought...... what style kitchen do you think will appeal to the majority of people?? I think the shiny surface cabinets look lovely (you'll have to forgive my shocking memory I cannot remember what they're called). I think they look clean and modern. My mum and husband both think they're too hard to keep clean (fingerprints etc).

Or traditional wood? Or cream coloured wood?

Depends on the house! Pick something in keeping.
