Default Kitchen Costs - Property Ladder et al

Hi all

Where do the costs come from on these programs for kitchens?
OK so some characters go for the ridiculously expensive £30k fitments.
If you are a mear mortal though and will accept a decent quality but
run-of-the-mill type kitchen where do you go for a decent deal?
Many of Sarah's shows include people creating smart installs for £3-4k, make
that £6-7 to include white goods/electrics; and they all have people in to
do the fitting.
Any of the places I've been seem to start at £10k for apparently similar
quality.
Am I looking in the wrong place?
To be fair this is a bit OT cos I've just about run out of steam on the old
DIY lark and am considering "getting a man in".
Will it be significantly cheaper to arrange trades individually myself
(floor tiler, sparks, kitchen fitters etc)?

TIA

Phil
