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.
We arrange a new kitchen for homeowners in Risca and the wider Mid Glamorgan. The job is planned, priced and managed by us and carried out by tradespeople engaged under our contract, so there is one agreement and one contact. On a typical home the work takes 1–3 weeks on site, and guide pricing in Wales is £7,400–£20,000, VAT included.

How much does a new kitchen cost in Risca?
Below is a breakdown of typical costs for a new kitchen in Risca. Because rates in Wales are about 8% below the national guide, the overall guide comes to £7,400–£20,000, including VAT. Size, materials and access move the figure, and a free-of-charge survey settles it.

|---|---|---|
| Value kitchen | Standard units and laminate worktops in a small or medium room, keeping the existing layout. | £4,600–£8,300 |

| Premium kitchen | High-end units, stone worktops, an island and premium appliances in a larger room. | £18,500–£37,000 |
Your price depends mostly on:
- Length of units and the size of the room

- Tiling, flooring and any wall removal or replastering

Homes in Mid Glamorgan
The Rhondda, Cynon and Merthyr valleys are lined with stone terraces built for mining families, stepped along steep hillsides. Pontypridd, Caerphilly and Merthyr Tydfil have Victorian centres, and Bridgend has grown with large modern estates alongside interwar and post-war housing.
Valley terraces commonly need repointing, roof repairs, rendering and window replacement, and loft conversions can add useful space. Newer estate homes often take garage conversions, porches and landscaping.
Knowing the typical building types in Mid Glamorgan helps, but a survey of your own home in Risca is what decides the right approach to a new kitchen.
Do you need permission in Risca?
Because Risca falls under Wales's rules, the guidance below is the version relevant to you. Before sending a price, we check your property's position with the council.
Internal improvements do not need planning permission in Wales unless the building is listed.
Building Regulations in Wales cover notifiable electrical work, drainage, ventilation and any structural change.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
The four stages
Free site survey
Book a visit and we'll come to you. The survey covers measurements, the state of what's there now and any obvious constraints, so the price that follows is based on your actual home, not an average.
Your fixed price
After the survey we send a quote for a new kitchen that fixes the price for the scope we've agreed. If you want to change materials or scope, we revise it in writing before anything is booked.
Getting ready
Preparation matters as much as the build. We agree access, parking and working hours with you, order materials in good time, and confirm any permissions so the job isn't held up once it starts.
On site to finish
Work goes ahead as scheduled and you deal with one contact throughout. When the last trade leaves, we clear and clean the site, talk you through what has been done and pass on any certificates and care instructions.
Why homeowners choose us
Frequently asked questions
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.
How long will I be without a kitchen?
You are usually without a working kitchen for one to two weeks, from strip-out until the sink and hob are reconnected. If stone worktops are being made to template, we can fit a temporary worktop so you can use the sink while you wait. Many people set up a microwave, kettle and fridge in another room. We plan the order of work to keep this period as short as possible.
What happens at the survey?
We visit your home at a time that suits you, look at the area involved, take measurements and check access, condition and any services that might be affected. We talk through what you want from a new kitchen, explain the options and answer questions. There is no charge and no obligation; afterwards we send a written quote.
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.
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.
