moving kitchen in slab floor house

Serious question:
in a three year old house, is it possible to move the location of the kitchen, where there are slab floors? Same side of house but past a downstairs loo.
And if it’s feasible, then has anyone done it or know the approx cost please??

Everything is possible.We're going to need more than a few lines how possible and how potentially expensive.Floorplans, siting of the waste pipes, presumably concreted inside the house?And when you say cost, do you just mean of the plumbing for that bit? Because the price of a kitchen is completely subjective.Then you have the cost of new electrics, plastering where the old one was taken out, and potentially new flooring. And you might need to move radiators etc.It's all unique to the house. And its owner.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

I considered this when planning my extension but quickly dismissed it.
Building control insisted on 110 mm wastepipes under ground, even for a sink, dishwasher and washing machine. This would mean going into the slab and through the DPC. I was also going to end up with either an internal manhole or a new external waste run around the house destroying a patio and making a big mess on the way.
In the end the Risk and Cost were not worth the reward, so I came up with a plan B, which while not being exactly what I want, was a better long term option than Plan A.0
