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 take on a new kitchen throughout Wellington and the surrounding TF1 and TF5 postcodes, as well as in Telford, Shrewsbury and Stafford. The guide range for this work in the West Midlands is £7,800–£21,500 including VAT; where your project falls depends on its size, the materials you pick and how easy the site is to reach. A free survey turns that range into a fixed figure.

Homes in Shropshire
Shrewsbury and Ludlow are known for black-and-white timber-framed buildings alongside Georgian brick, and red sandstone is common in the north of the county. Telford was built as a new town from the late 1960s with large planned estates, and market towns such as Oswestry, Bridgnorth and Whitchurch mix historic centres with interwar and newer housing.
Timber-framed and stone buildings often need lime plaster, breathable finishes and roof repairs. Telford homes commonly suit extensions, window replacement and roofline or cladding renewal.
Whatever era your Wellington home dates from, we plan a new kitchen around how it is actually built rather than a one-size-fits-all specification.
Planning and building rules in Wellington
England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland each handle planning a little differently. Wellington comes under England, covered below, and we raise any questions with the council before your quote is finalised.
Internal work such as a new kitchen, bathroom, flooring, plastering or decorating does not need planning permission in England, unless the house is listed, when listed building consent may be needed even for internal changes.
Some internal work is covered by Building Regulations: new electrical circuits and work in bathrooms (Part P), new drainage, structural changes, extractor ventilation and any new window. Notifiable work is certified by a registered installer or by building control.
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 begin by looking at the job in person. During the free survey we discuss options, materials and budget for a new kitchen, and photograph or measure anything the quote needs to reflect.
Your fixed price
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.
Getting ready
Next comes planning the work itself. We set a start date that suits you, line up the right trades, and make sure any approvals for a new kitchen are in place before the first day on site.
On site to finish
The work is carried out to the agreed specification, with floors and furniture protected and the site kept tidy. At the end we clean up, walk through the finished job with you and hand over any certificates.
Why homeowners choose us
Common questions
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.
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.
Do you cover Telford, Shrewsbury and Stafford?
Yes. As well as Wellington, we cover Telford, Shrewsbury and Stafford and the rest of Shropshire. 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 will a new kitchen cost in Wellington?
As a guide, expect to pay £7,800–£21,500 including VAT for a new kitchen in Wellington. That range is adjusted for the West Midlands, which runs about 2% below the national guide. Where your project lands depends on size, materials, access and the condition of what is already there. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey of your home.
Which worktop material should I choose?
Laminate worktops are the most affordable and come in many stone and wood effects, though they can be damaged by hot pans. Solid wood is warm and repairable but needs regular oiling. Quartz is very hard-wearing, stain-resistant and needs little maintenance, but it costs more and is made to template after the units are fitted. We bring samples and explain the care each one needs.
