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.
Whatever type of house you own in Tonypandy, we start by looking at how a new kitchen would fit it rather than offering a standard package. We cover CF40 and neighbouring places such as Rhondda, Pontypridd and Aberdare. One named person looks after you from survey to handover, and nothing is booked until you hold our figure in writing, fixed for the work described.

Building in Tonypandy
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.
The valleys get heavy rainfall and steep, sloping sites are common, so drainage, retaining walls and render specification matter.
So when we survey a Tonypandy property for a new kitchen, the first step is working out how it was built and what has been changed since.
Permissions for a new kitchen in Tonypandy
Which rules apply depends on where you live. For Tonypandy, the answer is Wales, and the points below reflect that; we verify them with the council before quoting.
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.
How does the job run?
A visit to your home
A free survey comes first. It gives us what we need to price a new kitchen properly, including dimensions, existing materials and access for deliveries, and gives you the chance to ask anything you like.
Written quote
The quote arrives in writing, not over the phone. It covers the full scope, the finishes you've chosen, any exclusions and the payment schedule, with a fixed price tied to that specification.
Plan and prepare
We handle the paperwork side: checking whether planning permission or building control approval is needed, submitting applications where they are, and scheduling the trades and materials around your dates.
On site to finish
During the work we protect the areas around it and tidy up at the end of each day. Once complete, we check the finish, remove our materials and hand over paperwork such as building control sign-off where it applies.
How we work
Questions about a new kitchen in Tonypandy
Can I stay at home during the work?
In most cases, yes. Most people can live at home throughout, and we plan the work to keep disruption down by protecting floors, agreeing working hours and keeping access routes clear. Bigger jobs affecting kitchens, bathrooms or heating may mean a short spell with reduced facilities, and we talk this through with you at the survey.
How long does it take to fit a kitchen?
Fitting a kitchen typically takes one to three weeks on site, depending on its size and how much the layout changes. Strip-out, first-fix plumbing and electrics, and any plastering come first, then units, worktops, appliances and tiling. Stone worktops are templated once the base units are in and usually fitted a week or two later. We give you a day-by-day plan before we start.
Do you cover Rhondda, Pontypridd and Aberdare?
Yes. As well as Tonypandy, we cover Rhondda, Pontypridd and Aberdare and the rest of Mid Glamorgan. Our coverage is UK-wide, so the process is the same wherever you are: a free site survey, a quote in writing that fixes the price for the agreed scope, and one point of contact while the work is planned and carried out.
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.
Can I move my sink or cooker to a new position?
Moving the sink, hob or cooker is usually possible but adds cost, because waste pipes, water supplies, gas and electrics have to be rerouted. Sinks need waste pipes to fall towards the drain, so the position of the outside wall matters. Hobs may need a new circuit or gas run and a suitable extractor route. We check what is practical during the survey and price each change separately.
