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.
Our guide for a new kitchen in Wales comes to £7,400–£20,000 with VAT added, and that range applies across West Glamorgan, including Swansea, Neath, Briton Ferry and Gorseinon. Your own price depends on the size of the job, the specification and how easy it is to work on the site. We survey for free, check any consents needed under the rules in Wales, and then put the price in writing.

Housing across West Glamorgan
Swansea's Victorian terraces climb its hillsides, its centre was largely rebuilt after wartime bombing, and Neath and Port Talbot have industrial terraces and post-war estates. Gower villages have stone cottages, and Pennant sandstone is common in older walls. Newer estates have grown on the edges of the main towns.
Hillside terraces often need repointing, rendering, roof repairs and window replacement, and loft conversions can work well. Gower stone cottages call for lime-based repairs, and estate homes commonly take extensions and driveways.
Swansea Bay and Gower face wet westerly weather and salt, and steep streets can affect access and scaffolding.
Do you need permission in West Glamorgan?
West Glamorgan is in Wales, so the planning and building rules set out below are the ones that apply. We confirm the details with the council before we 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.
The four stages
Free site survey
It starts with a survey at the property, free of charge. We check condition, access and services, ask how you want the finished result to look, and answer any questions you have about a new kitchen.
Price and scope agreed
We put everything into a written, fixed-price quote: the specification, what's excluded, staged payments and the expected time on site. Take whatever time you need to decide; there's no pressure to commit.
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
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.
What you can expect from us
Frequently asked 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.
Do you cover Swansea, Neath and Briton Ferry?
Yes. As well as West Glamorgan, we cover Swansea, Neath and Briton Ferry and the rest of West 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 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.
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.
How much will a new kitchen cost in West Glamorgan?
As a guide, expect to pay £7,400–£20,000 including VAT for a new kitchen in West Glamorgan. That range is adjusted for Wales, which runs about 8% 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.
