Landlord and rental kitchens in Aberystwyth
From the survey to handover, landlord and rental kitchens in Aberystwyth are run by us as one job, with the fitters and trades booked in the right order.
Why landlord and rental kitchens for an Aberystwyth home?
If a tenancy has left an Aberystwyth rental with a damaged worktop, swollen units or broken doors, a replacement can cost less over time than repeated repairs.
If you have bought a property in Dyfed to let and the kitchen is dated, replacing it before the first tenancy is far less disruptive than doing it later. Kitchens in every part of Aberystwyth are covered, and the survey visit is free wherever you are in Dyfed.

Kitchens in homes around Aberystwyth
Typical homes in this part of Dyfed include stone cottages, Victorian terraces, farmhouses and post-war bungalows. Stone cottages and farmhouses often have a small kitchen in a rear extension, while terraces in Llanelli and Aberystwyth tend to have a narrow galley at the back.
Rural farm tracks, steep coastal lanes and long distances between villages can affect delivery vehicles, so worktop lengths and timing need planning ahead. Mains water across most of Dyfed is soft, so limescale is rarely a big problem, though farms on private supplies may need their own filtering.
Building regulations, electrics and gas in Aberystwyth
In Wales, extending an existing circuit within a kitchen is notifiable under Part P, so almost any new socket in a rental kitchen is certified through a competent person scheme or building control. Landlords in Wales also need periodic electrical inspections and annual gas safety checks, and gas connections are made only by Gas Safe registered engineers. HMO kitchens should follow the licence conditions and the council's HMO standards.
Homes in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park or Bannau Brycheiniog, listed cottages and conservation areas may need consent for a new external vent or historic alterations.
Tips before you start
- Keep a spare door, a few plinth clips and some handles from the order in storage, ready for quick repairs between tenancies.
- Schedule the kitchen alongside other void-period jobs at your property in Dyfed, such as decorating, so the home is ready to let in one go.
- Keep copies of every certificate and the kitchen specification in the property file, so a future repair can be matched exactly.
- Pick a door style and colour from a range likely to stay available, so one damaged door can be replaced without changing the whole kitchen.
Questions about landlord and rental kitchens in Aberystwyth
How much do landlord and rental kitchens cost in Aberystwyth?
Guide prices in Aberystwyth are about £5,500 to £10,100 including VAT for a small rental kitchen in a flat or terrace, supplied and fitted. The final price depends on the size of the kitchen and what is moving, and is set out in an itemised written quote.
Can you measure up in Aberystwyth before quoting?
Yes. Every quote starts with a free, no-obligation survey visit to your home in Aberystwyth. We measure the room, check the walls, floor and service positions, then send an itemised written quote.
How quickly can a rental kitchen be replaced between tenancies?
Usually three to seven days on site once the property is empty, depending on the size of the kitchen and whether services move. Ordering is the bigger factor, so we aim to survey during the notice period and have the kitchen delivered for the day the tenancy ends. Short gaps between tenancies are much easier to meet when the specification is settled early.
Can you work with my letting agent on access?
Yes. Landlords who live away from the property often prefer this, so we can arrange keys, survey times and fitting access through your letting agent, with you approving the quote and any changes. We do not manage properties or act as a letting agent; we carry out the kitchen work and keep both you and your agent updated as it progresses.
What kind of kitchen lasts longest in a rented home?
A rental kitchen lasts longest when it combines well-built carcasses, doors with a tough, easily cleaned finish, laminate worktops with sealed edges and a wipe-clean vinyl floor. Simple, widely available appliances are quicker to replace when one fails. Finishes that mark easily or need regular oiling, such as solid wood worktops, are better avoided unless you are prepared to maintain them.
