A new kitchen installation replaces your old units, worktops and appliances with a new layout fitted to your room, including the plumbing, electrics, tiling and finishing needed to leave a complete, working kitchen.
For a homeowner in Llandudno, planning a new kitchen tends to begin with two questions: what will it cost, and how disruptive will it be? Our guide range is £7,400–£20,000 including VAT, and a typical job runs to 1–3 weeks on site. Both numbers firm up once we have seen the property, measured up and agreed exactly what is included.

What are homes like around Llandudno?
Slate defines much of Gwynedd, from quarrying villages such as Bethesda and Blaenau Ffestiniog with their stone terraces to slate roofs across the county. Bangor and Caernarfon have Victorian and Georgian streets, Anglesey has stone cottages and bungalows, and resorts such as Pwllheli and Barmouth have Victorian terraces and newer bungalows.
Stone and slate homes need breathable lime render and pointing, and slate roofs often need careful repair rather than replacement. Terraces suit loft conversions, and bungalows commonly take extensions and window upgrades.
Building traditions across Gwynedd also raise conservation and planning questions, so we check those for a new kitchen in Llandudno at the survey stage.

How does the job run?
Free site survey
First, someone visits your home in Llandudno to see the space, take measurements and note anything that could affect the work, such as access or the condition of what is there. There is no charge for this visit.
Your fixed price
We turn the survey notes into a written quote. The price is fixed for the specification we agree, and the document sets out materials, scope and payment stages in plain language.
Plan and prepare
Before anyone starts, we confirm the programme in writing, check whether consents are required and arrange deliveries. If a skip or scaffolding on the road needs a permit, we apply for it.
The work itself
On site, the agreed plan is followed and any change is put in writing first. At completion we do a final clean, go through the snagging list with you and leave you with the relevant documents.

Common questions
How long will a new kitchen take?
On a typical home, allow 1–3 weeks on site. Larger projects, older buildings and extra work found once things are opened up can extend that, while simpler jobs may be shorter. Your quote includes an estimate of time on site, and your point of contact keeps you updated on the programme as the work progresses.
What should I do to prepare for my kitchen fitting?
Before fitting starts, empty all cupboards and drawers, clear worktops and remove anything from the walls. Plan where you will make drinks and simple meals for a week or two, and agree where deliveries will be stored, as units take up a lot of space. Make sure we can access the stopcock, fuse board and gas meter. We confirm the delivery date and start date in advance.
How much does a new kitchen cost?
A mid-range kitchen of around 5–7 linear metres of units costs £7,400–£20,000 supplied and fitted. Value kitchens in smaller rooms cost less, and premium kitchens with stone worktops, an island and high-end appliances cost more. Moving the sink or hob, new electrics and replastering also affect the total. As a guide, allow roughly £1,000–£2,800 per linear metre of units plus fixed fitting costs. We confirm a fixed price after the survey.
Do I need a new extractor fan?
A kitchen needs effective extraction to remove steam, cooking smells and grease, and building regulations set minimum rates for new or altered kitchens. A ducted extractor that vents outside is the most effective, while recirculating hoods filter the air and return it to the room. We check whether a duct can reach an outside wall and recommend a hood that suits your hob and room size.
Do I need planning permission in Llandudno?
It depends on the work, the size of the project, your property type and whether the building is listed or in a conservation area. Llandudno is in Wales, so Wales's rules apply. Many smaller jobs need no planning application, but some still need building control approval. We check what applies to your address before quoting.
