Kitchen renovation costs in the UK — what to expect

As a general guide, small or simple kitchen projects at Carvalho Renovations tend to start around £5,000, while substantial or high-specification kitchen renovations — larger layouts, an island, premium worktops and integrated appliances — can exceed £30,000 The calculator above builds a range specific to your own selections rather than simply interpolating between those two figures, since the actual cost of a kitchen depends far more on cabinetry, worktop, appliances and finish level than on floor size alone.

The single biggest cost driver is usually cabinetry and worktop specification — a laminate worktop and a quartz worktop can differ by thousands of pounds across a typical run, and "installation only" (fitting units you've already bought) is substantially cheaper than a full supply-and-install. Appliances, plumbing/electrical alterations and preparation work (removing an existing kitchen, plastering, remedial works) then add on top of that base.
