Replacement kitchen doors in Pembroke Dock

Is replacement kitchen doors right for your Pembroke Dock kitchen?

If your Dyfed kitchen is older, its cabinets may be in sizes that are no longer standard, so made-to-measure doors let you keep units that are still sound. Homes right across Pembroke Dock are covered, as are nearby places such as Milford Haven, Haverfordwest and the villages in between.

Fitting kitchens in older and newer Pembroke Dock homes

In and around Pembroke Dock, homes range across 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.

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. Rural farm tracks, steep coastal lanes and long distances between villages can affect delivery vehicles, so worktop lengths and timing need planning ahead.

Building regulations, electrics and gas in Pembroke Dock

In Wales, new kitchen doors need no planning permission or Building Regulations approval; if the building is listed and original fitted joinery is affected, listed building consent may be needed. Adding plinth or cornice lighting is different: extending an existing circuit within a kitchen is notifiable under Part P in Wales, so that part is certified through a competent person scheme or building control. Doors, drawer fronts, panels and handles on their own need no paperwork.

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.

Getting the most from your replacement kitchen doors

Count every door, drawer front, end panel and plinth before asking for prices, including integrated appliance doors and panels at the ends of runs.
Allow for delivery time on made-to-measure doors; your kitchen stays usable while you wait, as nothing comes off until they arrive.
Open the sink cupboard in your Pembroke Dock kitchen and press the base; soft or swollen board means that unit needs replacing before new doors.
Old drawer boxes may not take new fronts neatly; worn runners or unusual fixings sometimes make new drawer boxes worth adding.

Do you cover all of Pembroke Dock?

Yes. We work across Pembroke Dock, including the SA72 postcode district, and nearby towns such as Milford Haven and Haverfordwest. Book a free survey visit and we will arrange a time that suits you.

When does a new kitchen make more sense than new doors?

When the problem is more than the look. If several carcasses are swollen or broken, the layout does not work for you, or you want to move the sink, hob or appliances, new doors only cover the issue. New doors suit kitchens whose cabinets are square, dry and well fixed and whose layout still works. We will tell you at the survey which route we think makes sense.

What if some of my kitchen units are water damaged?

Damaged units are replaced before the new doors go on, because swollen chipboard does not recover. The sink base is the usual problem, from slow leaks at the trap or tap, followed by units beside the dishwasher. We check every carcass at the survey, look for the cause of any leak, and price replacement units as a separate line so you can see the cost clearly.

Can new doors be fitted to my existing kitchen units?

Usually, yes, as long as the carcasses are sound. We measure every door and drawer front at the survey and check the hinge positions, because sizes vary between makers and older kitchens often use sizes that are no longer standard. Doors are then made to measure or matched to your units, drilled for new hinges and hung so the gaps line up across each run.
