Payments - Things To Consider

Many kitchen fitters come from a carpentry background, skilled in working with worktops and kitchen doors.

Here at NMB Kitchens and Bathrooms, our fitters are professional, multi-skilled, with extensive experience to ensure quality installations.

We offer competitive rates that reflect their expertise, helping us retain a skilled and reliable team.

When electrical or gas work is required,  we use trusted subcontractors we work with regularly. This is  to keep quality high throughout your project.

A reputable kitchen fitter will not ask for full payment upfront. Typically, they request a deposit to secure materials and confirm the booking.

At NMB Kitchens and Bathrooms, we create a personalised weekly payment plan once you approve the itemised quotation.

An initial deposit is taken to secure both the fitters and your targeted installation date.

Reputable kitchen fitters usually request the final payment once the work is completed.

An upfront deposit may be required to cover material costs.

Always make sure you have a written quotation or contract before making any payments.

Yes. At NMB Kitchens and Bathrooms, we require a deposit. This is to secure your fitting dates and to cover the cost of the initial materials.

What is the average cost of a kitchen is a great question and a good starting point. 

The answer does depends on a few factors.

For example your specific design preferences and whether any additional building work is required to complete your dream kitchen.

Costs may also increase if unforeseen issues arise during installation—such as rotten floor joists or structural movement.

At NMB Kitchens and Bathrooms, we offer a free design and quotation service tailored to your needs.

What helps sets us apart is that you get Nevin, the company owner who, carries out all initial surveys. He will also provide fully itemised quotes for supply, fitting, and any required building work.

Why our service is different is because of our commitment to transparent pricing. Every item is individually costed, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. If Nevin spots any potential issues during the survey, he will flag them early to avoid surprises later.

Example 1:

kitchen cost for a standard 3-bed semi-detached home. Typically starts from £8,000–£10,000, excluding labour, appliances, and decorating.

Things to Consider Before Starting Your Kitchen Project

Planning a new kitchen involves more than just choosing a style—it’s about understanding your needs, your space, and the scope of work involved. Here are some key questions to ask yourself before getting started:

STRUCTURE & LAYOUT

• Will I need an extension or any structural building work?

• Do I need to replace or reposition windows or doors?

DESIGN PREFERENCES

• What type of kitchen design suits my style and home?

• What cabinet finishes do I prefer—matte, gloss, woodgrain, or something else?

• What quality of kitchen doors do I want—MDF, vinyl-wrapped, or solid wood?

APPLIANCES & FEATURES

Do I need new appliances such as a cooker, microwave, fridge, smart fridge, dishwasher, Quooker tap, or wine cooler?

• What type of sink fits my design—Belfast, granite, ceramic, or stainless steel?

WORKTOPS

• Which worktop material do I want—laminate, solid wood, quartz, granite, or Corian?

TRADES & SERVICES

• What additional work will be required—electrics, plumbing, plastering, or tiling?

Taking time to think through these questions will help ensure your new kitchen is both functional and tailored to your lifestyle. At NMB Kitchens and Bathrooms, we guide you through each step to make the process smooth and stress-free.
