Where's the best place to get a kitchen in Tenerife?

[languagefan]

Hi all,
A friend has bought a flat and needs to get her kitchen sorted, but Santana prices are very expensive. Does anybody know a cheaper way to fit an alright kitchen, new or second hand in good condition?
Thanks

Ikea! The joiners I know back home use the cabinets from them, may as well go the whole hog and get the doors too. I got a price of 3k with electrics recently. Just get white doors, they look the same as any other company.

Go to Ikea, good quality cabinets and get standard sizes and white, then all you have to do is change the doors if you get fed up with it and it looks like a new kitchen. Hardest bit is fitting the worktops if you have the gear its straight forward if not get, best bet is to get someone in to do it.

As for time, man with some tools, say 10-12 euros an hour, depending on size 1-3 days work but you need to plan ahead with electricity points, plumbing so best get a man with tools who can do those jobs too in advance.

No self employed man or company could servive charging 10-12 euros an hour.

I have no trouble finding them, will not be using your services then that is for sure. 7 euros for a smasher, 11 euros for a pro guy. They are just not British.

No legal company charges €88 a day they would not be able to survive.

Yep, I agree you have to find someone who does not have the overheads.

no overheads by the sounds of it,

All legal self employed have roughly the same amount to pay each month and €10 an hour just does cut it.

I don't promote illegal workers, it's the cancer of Spain.


and to add, there are quite a number of excellent British workers and self employed here so "Pay the Brit end up poorer" is an insult.

Retort to "pay the peanut get the monkey" . My Brit neighbours who have been here 7 years said they would never employ a Brit after many bad experiences. For sure every nationality has its' fair share of users but it is also not fair to rubbish the people who undercut you.
