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 prompted you to look into a new kitchen, whether wear and tear, a growing family or plans to move, we can survey your Newtown home and give you a price in writing. Homes in Wales typically come in at £7,400–£20,000, VAT included, for this kind of work. We also cover Welshpool, Oswestry and Shrewsbury, and the same steps apply wherever you are in Powys.

What are homes like around Newtown?
Powys is largely rural, with stone farmhouses and cottages under slate roofs, and timber-framed black-and-white buildings in Montgomeryshire towns near the English border. Brecon has Georgian streets, Llandrindod Wells has Victorian spa-town villas, and towns such as Newtown and Welshpool mix older centres with post-war and newer estates.
Upland weather dominates, with heavy rain, snow and hard frosts on higher ground, and remote sites can need extra planning for access and deliveries.
None of this holds for every street in Newtown, which is why we look at your actual house before pricing a new kitchen rather than assuming from its age alone.
Do you need permission in Newtown?
As Newtown is in Wales, read the following with that system of planning and building control in mind. We check what applies to your house with the council before you receive a quote.
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.
What happens after you get in touch?
We look at the job
We arrange a free site survey on a date convenient to you. We measure up, look at the existing structure and access, and discuss your plans for a new kitchen so the price reflects your home.
Price and scope agreed
Next you receive a written quote with a fixed price for the agreed specification. It lists what is included, what is not, and how payments are staged, so you can compare it properly.
Plan and prepare
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.
Build and hand over
Our trades complete a new kitchen while your point of contact keeps you updated. When everything is finished, we clear the site, take away waste and go through the result with you before handover.
How we work
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.
Can you combine a new kitchen with other work?
Yes. Because we manage several trades under one contract, we can plan a new kitchen alongside other work on your Newtown home, such as new windows with rendering, or a kitchen refit with an extension. Combining jobs can reduce repeat set-up such as scaffolding, skips and access, and every element is listed and priced in the same written quote.
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 a new kitchen be part of a knock-through?
A new kitchen often goes hand in hand with removing a wall to create an open-plan kitchen-diner. The wall removal, steel beam and building control approval are done first, then the plastering, and finally the kitchen is fitted into the new space. Doing both under one plan avoids fitting a kitchen twice and lets you design the layout for the larger room.
