Think i will go down the route of Howdens, looks very nice and after reading more about them their prices seem pretty good aswell

Could I just add that I have no connection with this company. I just think they provide very good value.

if you know someone with an account at howdens get them to order the kitchen for you as they will pay 60% less than if you was to order it as they would rather deal with trade and not joe public.

Howdens have just fitted brand new kitchens in our properties.
I didn't get one ( health issues ) but they are very nice, and solid.
All I will say is get it done as soon as you move in , the mess caused is unreal, especially if they start bashing tiles off, and ripping floors up.
The mess will take over the house ( cement dust ), and I know you like to be clean, so thought I would point this out.

Friends of mine took themselves to B&Q and talked units with them, had a plan drawn up.

They then found a local fitter who went with them to Howdens and fitted according to the plans they had..

That's my plan, rip everything out and make sure all plumbing/wiring is in top condition then get the walls plastered and the floor fitted (plumbing/wiring and floor i will do myself but will get someone in for the plastering)....once done then the fitters can start the fitting for the kitchen.

It's what i done in my previous home, first is the kitchen then the bathroom/toilet....all other rooms are pretty easy and kinda mess free.

You wouldn't want to see my kitchen, its old and decrepid, or is that me

Could have had a free kitchen, well it aint free but I still have to pay service charge increase anyhow but couldn't have it.
My bathroom on the other hand, well it cost an arm and a leg, caused more mess than you could ever imagine but it's done.

Come to think of it i will probably fit the kitchen myself as i am a bit of a dab hand with DIY but i will get someone in for the worktop as they have the tools for it, will also get someone in to fit a new bath but i will do the toilet and sink.

Worktops
Baths
Plastering

Is no no's for me

I'm excellent at the demolition side of diy, I stand there swinging hammers around, but then have to call on the pros to put it back together lol.

My mum is the same with hammers, i still remember when i just moved into a new home in London she came around and said to me "I would get rid of that wall to make the kitchen bigger"....I replied don't even think about it, stay away from that wall....i came back from work and the wall was gone with her just standing there with a sledgehammer with dust all over her and a big grin....followed by "Looks better don't it".....there was no wall too
