The cost of having a kitchen installed varies depending on the size of the kitchen, the layout (straight, corner, U-shaped, with an island), and the amount of additional work such as dismantling or adjusting pipework and electrics. For installation only (excluding the purchase of the kitchen), prices in the Netherlands typically range between €500 and €2,500, with an average installation often coming to around €700–€1,500. At Zoofy, rates average between €500 and €1,500 based on 125 jobs. Zoofy’s pricing is transparent, the professional’s fixed costs are included in the rate, and you pay no call-out fees. That way, you know exactly what to expect upfront.

How long does it take to install a kitchen?
On average, assembling and installing a kitchen takes 1 to 3 working days. This depends on the size of the kitchen, the number of cabinets and appliances, and the type of worktop. If an old kitchen also needs to be removed or adjustments are required to water, electricity, or gas, the total job can take about 3 to 5 working days (sometimes up to a week for extensive custom work).
What does the professional do when installing a kitchen?
When installing a kitchen, a professional typically carries out the following steps:
- Preparation: Checking the kitchen space, reviewing the design/plan, and getting all parts and materials ready.
- Removing the old kitchen (if applicable): Dismantling and (optionally) disposing of the existing kitchen.
- Assembling and placing cabinets: Building and levelling all base and wall units according to the kitchen plan.
- Installing the worktop: Measuring, cutting to size, and fitting the worktop, including cut-outs for the sink and hob.
- Connecting appliances: Installing and connecting built-in appliances, and hooking up water pipes, drains, electricity, and gas where needed.
- Finishing: Fitting filler panels, plinths, handles, sealant, and other details for a neat final result.
- Final check: Testing appliances and connections to ensure everything works safely and properly.
How do I know if I have a good and reliable professional?
At Zoofy, professionals are carefully screened for craftsmanship and reliability. You can view reviews and ratings from previous customers. Zoofy works only with professionals who have an average rating of 9.2 or higher.

How does contact with the professional work after the job for maintenance and warranty?
After your kitchen has been installed, you can stay in touch with the professional through Zoofy. If something isn’t to your satisfaction, you can easily report it. Every professional is legally required to provide a warranty on the work delivered. If you want extra security, you can take out an optional warranty package through Zoofy for additional coverage.

Who do I pay?
Payment is always handled through Zoofy. Once the professional has finished installing your kitchen, you will receive a payment request by email or a QR code after completion of the job. This allows you to pay safely and easily via iDEAL or another payment method. You never pay the professional directly by card or cash.
