Kitchen Fitting FAQs
If you’re planning a new kitchen, you might be wondering whether to hire a kitchen designer or work solely with a kitchen fitter. The answer depends on your needs, the complexity of your project, and how much support you require during the design phase. Here’s what you need to know:
What Does a Kitchen Designer Do?
A kitchen designer focuses on the aesthetics, layout, and functionality of your space. They’ll work closely with you to:
- Create a bespoke kitchen design that suits your style and practical needs.
- Maximise the use of available space.
- Select materials, colours, and appliances that match your preferences.
Designers also consider factors like lighting, worktop choices, and storage solutions to ensure the kitchen is not only beautiful but also functional.
When Should You Hire a Kitchen Designer?
You might benefit from hiring a kitchen designer if:
- You’re Starting from Scratch: If you’re building or renovating a kitchen from the ground up, a designer can create a plan that fits your lifestyle perfectly.
- You Want a Bespoke Look: Designers specialise in creating unique kitchens that reflect your personal style.

Can a Kitchen Fitter Help with Design?
While kitchen fitters focus primarily on installation, they can work from designs you’ve already created or collaborate with your chosen designer. At Danby Interiors, you’ll find design and planning services that perfectly complement the work of skilled fitters like us. In addition, you can also try Four Seasons Kitchens. Both these companies are first class kitchen designers based in Leeds.
How to Decide?
If you have a clear vision and layout already planned, a kitchen fitter might be all you need. However, for a fully tailored kitchen that maximises your space and reflects your style, working with a kitchen designer can elevate your project.
On average, it takes between two to four weeks for a full kitchen installation. This includes the time needed to for removal of the old cabinetry and new cabinetry installation. Any additional services such as appliance installation, flooring, and tiling can also affect the timeline.
A new kitchen is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase the value of your home. On average, installing a new kitchen adds 5% – 15% to the value of your home and can help make it more attractive to potential buyers. Of course, the specific cost and value added depends on the type of materials and installation used.
There are several ways to reduce the cost of a new kitchen. Look for ways to save with discounts, DIY projects, and repurposed materials. Shop around for good deals on cabinets, appliances, lighting fixtures, and flooring materials in order to get the best price. Research how to do minor installations yourself and swap out outdated accessories with budget-friendly alternatives. Finally, look into available grants or loan programs that can offset the cost of remodelling your kitchen.
The average cost of a new kitchen can vary widely depending on the size and materials used.
- A small kitchen upgrade ranges between £5,000 and £15,000.
- A large kitchen installation can exceed £30,000.
The cost is typically driven by the quality of materials and the number of line items included in the project scope.
Kitchen installation typically costs 50% of the purchased kitchen price. The cost of kitchen installation can vary greatly depending on the size and complexity of the job. You’ll need to make it clear with your fitter what is included so you can see a breakdown of what’s involved. Consider item cost such as removal of waste, decoration, electrics, plumbing, flooring.
Typically, the flooring is laid after the kitchen cabinets are installed. This means leaving the kickboards off so that flooring can go slightly underneath.
A good kitchen fitter will be able to remove your old kitchen before installing your new one. It is important to budget for removal and addition to your fitting. There will be disposal costs including skip hire to consider.
Homeowners have been waiting longer than normal to get their kitchens fitter for a couple of main reasons – The home improvement binge, due to the pandemic and the labour shortage because of Brexit. This is now improving however but it is best to plan ahead and book your kitchen fitter as soon as possible.
