Been asked to price the fitting of an Ikea kitchen but have not fitted one before, I understand that they can be problematic, what should i be aware of when pricing and should i add a bit on for hassle or just swerve.?
Thanks Guys

No service void at the back of the cabinet, apart from that, pretty standard.

Rubbish wall brackets . It's the service void which is the main pain. Cheap kitchens then spend a fortune re routing everything. Go figure.

Re: IKEA kitchens pluses and minuses
As has been pointed out already. Zero service void, but if the customer has explained this to the sparks and plumber, they may well have first fixed with IKEA units in mind.(there again, probably not) One other thing, with the units having no service void, the walls have to be as flat as possible. You have virtually no chance of scribing units to the wall if it's out.
