Changing freestanding cooker to built in hob and oven

Hi
I currently have a freestanding 60cm cooker which needs replacing
I’m considering changing to a built in hob and oven
Is this possible?
Would I need to buy 60cm hob or smaller
Some guidance would be much appreciated

Thankyou

"Hi Tanya.you can buy a hob and a built-in oven, but you will need a cabinet for this. I don't know what your situation is with the worktop, but if you had a free-standing hob, you will have to replace the kitchen worktop because the built-in hob is placed on the worktop."

"Hi,

You would need to install worktop so the hob has something to sit in. You also need an oven housing to sit the oven in. The housing be bought ready made from building merchants, or make one. I hope that's answered your question.
