Those that say no need spend so much on kitchen, u guys obviously not married.

First TS need to ask what his missus wants.. then look for quotations.

Whether she cooks or not is not important

Including appliances and wet hacking everything. Hood, hob, oven, dishwasher and maybe grinder. If within budget maybe put new tiles

Then your choice of materials for your built ins will be limited

Set aside a budget for your appliances then if it was me I would tile up the walls of the kitchen (minus the areas you plan to have your built in) if not already done so. Reduce your wet kitchen costs as much as possible. Just go for concrete wet kitchen top and tile it up. Bottom just install doors can even minus shelves to save cost.

Whatever you have left after the above you get the best deal you can for your dry kitchen. That's where your built ins should go and where you want a good island /peninsula to entertain guests or have dinner

LOL definitely not!

Set a budget and stick to it. Make sure your missus is aware of the budget. If you go by what the missus wants, you are in for a bad bill shock, especially where renovations are concerned. The sky is the limit!

25k for the appliances and 25k for melamine cabinet. Sounds doable.

Normally how it works? Can get quotation from different contractors? Quotation + design they give free or need to pay? Need to state upfront what design+material I want?

If you go through ID usually 100% through them, they managed their subcon too. They will work out within what budget you have.

Got some ID service also you pay for design and floor plan only. Then you find your own and manage all the contractors.

If you are handle on your own and got estimate dimension pm me le. Keep me in the list, I make cabinets, maybe can make for you.

basic mechanism, No piping relocation, minimum hacking as in for few additional plugpoint only. yes 50k can make do for the size you mentioned.

It is best to minimize the relocation especially water related piping and work around based on it. No matter how good your skill, once you touch it, the aftermath is a pain in the arse aside from still within warranty if house is new.
