vs UK average
A kitchen fitter working in Wales typically charges £215–£375 a day (£27–£47 an hour), ex VAT — 11% below the UK average of £330 a day. Below the national average overall, with Cardiff and the M4 corridor at the top of the local range and rural mid-Wales pricing in significant travel time.
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.
