Howdens discount (sorry)

smashed

Hi all, We have received a Howdens quote but currently unsure as to how much more we should be looking to get knocked off. In total it looks like an average of 71% discount (excluding appliances).

We will source our own appliances but i have left them on here for now. The quote has been tidied into discount percentages to make it as easy to read as possible.

Any advice appreciated
