The first question almost every homeowner asks us is simple: what will a new kitchen actually cost? Below are the price bands we see across Glasgow, Wishaw, Airdrie and Paisley in 2026, and exactly what sits behind each number.
Typical fitted kitchen price bands in Glasgow
For a standard 10–12 unit kitchen, budget installations usually land between £6,000 and £9,000 supplied and fitted. Mid-range projects with better carcasses, quartz-effect worktops and integrated appliances typically run £10,000 to £16,000. Bespoke and handleless kitchens with stone worktops start around £18,000.
Those figures include design, supply, removal of the old kitchen, joinery, plumbing, electrics, tiling and finishing. If a quote looks dramatically cheaper, check whether trades, waste removal and making good are actually inside the price.
What moves the price up or down
Worktops are the biggest single swing: laminate versus quartz can be a £2,500 difference on the same layout. Moving plumbing and gas points, knocking through to create open-plan space, and rewiring an older tenement flat all add labour days.
Keeping the existing layout is the fastest way to protect a budget. You still get a completely new room, but you avoid re-routing services — see our full breakdown on the fitted kitchens page.
Getting a quote you can trust
Insist on a fixed written quote after a home survey, with a line-by-line spec. We provide this free across every area we cover, from Glasgow to Falkirk.
Ask about payment stages too. A fair schedule is a deposit for materials, a mid-project stage payment and a final balance on completion and sign-off.
