Options to consider in Great Barr

Supply and fit

We measure, help you plan the layout, order the units, worktops and appliances, and fit everything. You get one price covering the kitchen and the work, with one firm responsible for both. It's the simplest route if you want somebody else to deal with deliveries, missing parts and making sure everything that arrives fits the room.

Kitchen with a new open-plan layout

When a kitchen goes in alongside a knock-through or extension, the steel position, lighting, sockets and radiators are planned around the kitchen design. Fitting the kitchen last, after plastering and screeding are finished and dry, protects the new units and means the flooring can run through both rooms without joins.

What does your new kitchen cost in Great Barr?

Guide prices start at £2,200 and run to £28,000 depending on size and specification. Supply and fit of a mid-range 10–12 unit kitchen with laminate worktops in a three-bed semi: around £10,500–£14,500.
