How much does it cost to fit a kitchen in Ireland?

per kitchen
Planning a kitchen that works for your home
A new kitchen involves more than fitting cabinets. The layout, worktops, appliances, plumbing and finishing details all need to work together.
Whether you're replacing an existing kitchen or fitting one in a new space, getting the installation right can make the difference between a kitchen that looks good and one that works well every day.
What does kitchen fitting cost in Ireland?
Kitchen fitting on Bark typically costs €6,000 to €15,000 per kitchen, including supply and fitting.
The final price depends on the size of the kitchen, the units and worktops you choose and how much preparation the room needs.
A straightforward replacement can cost less than a project that involves moving plumbing, changing the layout or repairing the existing walls and flooring.
What does the fitting price actually cover?
Ask for a clear breakdown before agreeing to a kitchen project.
A supply-and-fit quote may cover cabinets, worktops, installation and basic finishing. Other work, such as plumbing, electrical changes, tiling, flooring or appliance connections, may be priced separately.
Check whether removal of your old kitchen and disposal of waste are included too. These costs can otherwise appear as additions once the work has started.
Your layout can change the cost
Keeping your existing kitchen layout can make installation more straightforward.
Moving the sink, dishwasher or cooker can involve additional plumbing or electrical work. Changing walls or creating new openings can turn a kitchen installation into a wider building project.
If your plans involve structural changes, you may need a builder alongside your kitchen fitter.
Worktops, tiles and finishing details
The visible finishes can make a noticeable difference to both the appearance and cost of your kitchen.
Worktop materials range from straightforward laminate to more expensive stone and composite options. Your choice of splashback, handles, flooring and lighting can also increase the overall budget.
Tiling is another cost to clarify early. If you need new wall or floor tiles, you can compare specialist tilers separately from the main kitchen installation.
When should you involve a kitchen designer?
A kitchen fitter can work from an existing plan, but design input can be useful if you're changing the layout or making better use of an awkward space.
A kitchen designer can help you plan the position of units, appliances, storage and work surfaces before installation begins.
Getting the layout agreed before ordering materials can also reduce the risk of expensive changes once fitting has started.
What should you ask your kitchen fitter?
Before work begins, confirm exactly what the quote includes and who is responsible for each part of the project.
Ask about the installation schedule, removal of the existing kitchen, appliance connections and any preparation work. You should also check whether materials are supplied by the fitter or purchased separately.
If the project involves plumbing changes, clarify whether your fitter handles this directly or brings in a separate professional. Bark also has plumbers who can quote for plumbing work separately.
Don't compare quotes on the total alone
Two kitchen quotes can look similar while covering very different amounts of work.
Check the number and type of units, worktop material, appliances, installation, preparation and finishing work included in each proposal. A cheaper quote may leave out work that another fitter has already included.
Ask each fitter to explain any exclusions before you make a decision. This gives you a clearer comparison and reduces the chance of unexpected costs during installation.
Finding a kitchen fitter on Bark
Kitchen installation is a substantial project, so look beyond the headline price when comparing professionals.
Check reviews, previous work and experience with kitchens similar to yours. It can also help to discuss your plans with more than one fitter before deciding who to hire.
Bark lets you describe your kitchen project and compare local professionals, quotes and customer reviews before choosing who to contact.
Whether you're replacing a dated kitchen or fitting out a new space, getting the scope agreed before work starts can help keep the project on track.
