A new kitchen installation replaces your old units, worktops and appliances with a new layout fitted to your room, including the plumbing, electrics, tiling and finishing needed to leave a complete, working kitchen.
If you live in Bognor Regis and are weighing up a new kitchen, the starting point is a visit to measure up and talk through what you want, which costs nothing. We cover homes across PO21 and PO22, and a typical project of this kind in the South East lands somewhere in the £9,000–£24,500 bracket, including VAT. The exact figure depends on size, access and the finish you choose.

What should you budget for a new kitchen in Bognor Regis?
Use the table to gauge the cost of a new kitchen in Bognor Regis before we visit. Figures include VAT and are scaled for the South East, coming out about 12% above the national guide, which gives £9,000–£24,500 overall. After a free survey, you receive a fixed written price.
| Type of job | What it usually involves | Guide in Bognor Regis |
|---|---|---|
| Value kitchen | Standard units and laminate worktops in a small or medium room, keeping the existing layout. | £5,600–£10,000 |
| Mid-range kitchen | Better units, some layout changes, built-in appliances and a choice of worktops. | £10,000–£22,500 |
| Premium kitchen | High-end units, stone worktops, an island and premium appliances in a larger room. | £22,500–£45,000 |
The main things that change the figure:
- Length of units and the size of the room
- Unit range, door finish and worktop material
- Appliances, including built-in and premium models
- Tiling, flooring and any wall removal or replastering
Scope of the work
- Measured survey and layout planning for your room
- Removal and disposal of the old kitchen
- Plumbing for sink, dishwasher and washing machine
- Units, worktops and appliances fitted, levelled and adjusted
- Splashbacks or wall tiling to your chosen design
- Making good, extractor ducting and a final clean
What are homes like around Bognor Regis?
Chichester has Georgian brick streets, Downland villages use flint and brick, and Horsham stone slabs cover some older roofs. Worthing and Bognor Regis have interwar and post-war bungalows and semis, Crawley was planned as a post-war new town, and Wealden villages to the north feature tile-hanging and timber framing.
Coastal towns face salt-laden south-westerly winds, while Wealden clay inland can shrink and swell with the seasons.
That variety is why a guide price for a new kitchen in Bognor Regis is only a starting point; the survey shows what your particular property needs.
Permissions for a new kitchen in Bognor Regis
Because Bognor Regis falls under England's rules, the guidance below is the version relevant to you. Before sending a price, we check your property's position with the council.
Internal work such as a new kitchen, bathroom, flooring, plastering or decorating does not need planning permission in England, unless the house is listed, when listed building consent may be needed even for internal changes.
Some internal work is covered by Building Regulations: new electrical circuits and work in bathrooms (Part P), new drainage, structural changes, extractor ventilation and any new window. Notifiable work is certified by a registered installer or by building control.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
What happens after you get in touch?
Survey and measure
It starts with a survey at the property, free of charge. We check condition, access and services, ask how you want the finished result to look, and answer any questions you have about a new kitchen.
Price and scope agreed
The quote arrives in writing, not over the phone. It covers the full scope, the finishes you've chosen, any exclusions and the payment schedule, with a fixed price tied to that specification.
Getting ready
With the quote agreed, we book the work in and handle preparation: permissions where needed, building control notifications, material orders and access arrangements for your Bognor Regis property.
On site to finish
Work goes ahead as scheduled and you deal with one contact throughout. When the last trade leaves, we clear and clean the site, talk you through what has been done and pass on any certificates and care instructions.

Kitchens in Bognor Regis: questions
What should I do to prepare for my kitchen fitting?
Before fitting starts, empty all cupboards and drawers, clear worktops and remove anything from the walls. Plan where you will make drinks and simple meals for a week or two, and agree where deliveries will be stored, as units take up a lot of space. Make sure we can access the stopcock, fuse board and gas meter. We confirm the delivery date and start date in advance.
How long will a new kitchen take?
On a typical home, allow 1–3 weeks on site. Larger projects, older buildings and extra work found once things are opened up can extend that, while simpler jobs may be shorter. Your quote includes an estimate of time on site, and your point of contact keeps you updated on the programme as the work progresses.
Is the price fixed?
Yes, for the specification we agree. Your written quote sets out exactly what is included at a fixed price. It only changes if you ask for something different, or if a problem the survey could not reasonably reveal later needs extra work. In either case we explain the change and confirm it in writing before going ahead.
How long will I be without a kitchen?
You are usually without a working kitchen for one to two weeks, from strip-out until the sink and hob are reconnected. If stone worktops are being made to template, we can fit a temporary worktop so you can use the sink while you wait. Many people set up a microwave, kettle and fridge in another room. We plan the order of work to keep this period as short as possible.
How long does it take to fit a kitchen?
Fitting a kitchen typically takes one to three weeks on site, depending on its size and how much the layout changes. Strip-out, first-fix plumbing and electrics, and any plastering come first, then units, worktops, appliances and tiling. Stone worktops are templated once the base units are in and usually fitted a week or two later. We give you a day-by-day plan before we start.
