Projects
Every one fitted by our own team, photographed on the day we started and the day we finished, with what it cost and how long the fit took. The owners have said you can ask them about it; Carys has the numbers.
Medium · painted · quartz
Heol Llanishen Fach, Rhiwbina
A 1990s kitchen in a 1930s semi, with the back wall taken out to the old pantry. The island sits where the pantry wall was; the forest green is Little Greene's, matched at the works.
£23,4002-week fit
Large · handleless · quartz
Ty Wern Road, Llanishen
A new single-storey extension, handed over by the builder as a shell. We drew the kitchen with the architect before the slab was poured, so every pipe and cable came up where the units wanted them.
£38,9003-week fit
Small · painted · laminate
Llanbleddian Gardens, Cathays
A two-metre-wide galley in a terrace, with the fridge moved under the stairs and open oak shelves where wall units would have closed the room in. Laminate in a terrazzo print kept the budget for the doors.
£9,8002-week fit
Medium · handleless · quartz
Allensbank Road, Heath
The wall between the back kitchen and the dining room came out under a steel the structural engineer specified; we coordinated the builder and fitted the kitchen the week after the skim was dry.
£24,7002-week fit
Medium · painted · quartz
Velindre Road, Whitchurch
A 2005 gloss kitchen replaced in a fortnight, with a bank of tall units for two ovens at eye height for a couple who cook every night. The induction hob went where the old cooker was, on a new 32-amp circuit.
£17,2002-week fit
Small · oak · oak
Heol y Pentre, Pentyrch
Not one wall in the cottage is straight, so every unit was scribed to the stone. The range sits in the old chimney breast with a new flue liner fitted by our plumber.
£16,3003-week fit
Small · painted · oak
Mill Road, Lisvane
Half of a double garage turned into a utility and boot room for a family with two dogs: a butler sink for muddy paws, tall units for the washer and dryer stacked, and an oak bench under the coat hooks.
£8,9002-week fit
Worktop replacement · quartz
Caerphilly Road, Birchgrove
A kitchen we fitted in 2014 with laminate, which had swollen at the sink after ten years. New quartz templated on a Monday and fitted the following Tuesday, the sink undermounted, the cabinets untouched.
£3,1001-week fit
