vs UK average
A kitchen fitter working in South West typically charges £240–£420 a day (£30–£53 an hour), ex VAT — right on the UK average. Broadly the national average, with two markets in one: steady town-and-city work, plus coastal renovation demand from second homes and holiday lets that pays a premium in season.
A straightforward kitchen is a one-to-two-week install priced as a package, so the day rate matters most for extras and remedials discovered mid-job. Fitters trusted by kitchen showrooms get steady referral pipelines and price accordingly.
