IKEA kitchens
fitted like they cost twice as much.

An IKEA METOD kitchen is excellent value — if it's assembled square, fitted level and finished with proper plumbing, electrics, worktops and tiling. We do the whole job, not just the flat-pack, so the result looks and works like a far more expensive kitchen.

The honest answer

What IKEA kitchen installation
really costs in London.

Installing an IKEA kitchen in London costs between £2,800 and £12,000+ in labour — slightly more than a rigid kitchen of the same size, because every METOD cabinet has to be assembled before it's fitted. A typical medium IKEA kitchen with 12–16 cabinets costs £4,000–£7,000 + VAT to assemble and fit, including plumbing, electrics, tiling and decoration.

The cost drivers are the same as any kitchen — layout changes, worktop type, electrical work, tiling and flooring — plus IKEA-specific ones: the number of cabinets and drawers to assemble, MAXIMERA drawer runners, integrated appliance housings, and the fact that IKEA worktops, sinks and plinths often need more site adjustment than trade kitchens.

Common questions

Your questions
answered.

Labour to assemble and install an IKEA kitchen in London is £2,800–£4,500 + VAT for a small kitchen, £4,000–£7,000 for a medium kitchen and £6,500–£12,000+ for a large kitchen with an island. That includes strip-out, plumbing, electrics, assembly, fitting, worktops, tiling and decoration. Add £2,500–£8,000 for the IKEA order itself.
Every METOD cabinet arrives flat-packed and has to be assembled on site — a medium kitchen is a full day of assembly before fitting starts. IKEA worktops, plinths and cover strips also need more site adjustment. The units themselves are cheaper, so the total is usually still very competitive.
IKEA's service is a fitting-only package and won't handle plumbing, electrics, tiling, plastering or decoration — you'd still need other trades. We do the whole job under one fixed quote with one point of contact, which is usually simpler and often cheaper overall.
Yes — send us the planner file or PDF and we'll check dimensions against the room, spot missing items (cover panels, plinths, fillers, lighting), and confirm the appliance housings match your appliances. It saves a second trip to IKEA.
METOD cabinets are well made and come with a 25-year guarantee; the hinges and MAXIMERA runners are Blum-quality. The weak points are the worktops and some fronts. Fitted properly with a decent worktop, an IKEA kitchen is excellent value.
IKEA's laminate worktops are fine for rentals. For a family kitchen we usually recommend a quartz worktop from a local fabricator — it's often no more expensive than IKEA's stone options and is templated to fit exactly.
A small kitchen 5–8 working days; a medium 8–12 days; a large kitchen 2–4 weeks. Assembly adds one to two days compared with a rigid kitchen. Quartz worktops add a week for templating.
Yes — we fit METOD carcasses with fronts from Plykea, Husk, Superfront and similar, which is a popular way to get a bespoke-looking kitchen in London at a mid-range price.
