To supply and fit then it’s around £75. But to ‘fit only’ and there are too many variables to realise and quote a fixed price TBH. The best solution is to call by and suss out what’s involved? Then quote accordingly to avoid being out of pocket on the deal.
Messing around with flooring, plinths, door panels, plumbing and electrics is not an exact science. However, the art of making it a worthwhile job exactly that. 8)
Re: Labor Rates For installing Integrated Appliances
I now charge £85 minimum.
Fitting the door is the skilled bit which sets us above the DIY’ers and bodgers and justifies the higher fee.
As for “bespoke kitchens” I often just take a look and walk away as they dont seem to be made with dismantling in mind.

Charge £75 labour including fitting door, thinking of increasing cost as they are always agro. 😉

Neff amica And Currys Own Brand The Door Goes Strait back On (no new holes to drill)Same with Beko/Merloni/Fagor I’ve found, although different positions to Neff.
I charge £80 including door, take someone else and I can normally do it in 30 minutes. Have had one where I walked away, though, absolute PITA with DIY raised floor in front of unit. Paying half for getting the thing in, another half for spending 15 minutes lining up the bloody door with the rest of the (out of line) units.
Re: Labor Rates For installing Integrated Appliances
Oh s***, i must be too cheap then.
I charge £55.00 inc fitting door, Neff / Bosch are best.
May charge more if I go over 10 miles from home.

Does That Inc Hanging The Door ❓

Re: Labor Rates For installing Integrated Appliances
Yes reading through it does include hanging the furniture door in the £84.99
Re: Labor Rates For installing Integrated Appliances
£70 inc disposal if sourced from ourselves,
£99 + disposal if appliance is outsourced, that includes everything inc aligning neighbouring doors, holecuts, kickplate trims, hardwires etc. plus im really anal about how “right” it looks. the spirit level is your friend
but will often offer a £20 discount if i end up finding its a like for like panel fit that cuts off some time – i,e neff dw replacing a bosch, but its discretionary on how pleasant cust is and how much of a pig the job ends up being (hidden pipework, low worktops etc)
bit like when you go out to fit a single oven and find out old oven plugged in, and new oven has a 13a cable, is easy peasy so cust benefits from the reduction in time it will take me, but until youre there then you wont ever know 🙂

The trick I’ve found it to make sure you make them aware how much work it requires.Cust “Hi, I’d like a quote for installing my integrated washing machine.”
Me “Well, we don’t just do installation, we offer a complete fitting service. We unpack your new machine, commission it and connect it to the water and waste connections. We then level it and drill and reattach the hinges to your cupboard door. Finally, the engineer will demonstrate your new appliance for you, and recycle your old machine and packaging. For all that, we charge £79.”Yes, it’s hamming it up a bit, but you need to sell yourself. After all, you’re competing with Comet and their inclusive “carpentry work” :lol:.
