Your Wren Kitchen, Fitted Properly in Pontypridd

Wren send everything in one drop, built and boxed, which means there is no evening spent assembling carcasses but there is a serious carry in on a hillside terrace. We look at the street at the survey and decide whether the units come in through the front or down a rear lane, and we allow proper time for steps if that is what the house needs. Not every Pontypridd back lane helps: plenty are unsurfaced, gated, shared or too narrow for anything wider than a barrow, so we walk it rather than assume. Wherever they come in, the boxes need somewhere dry to sit, and in a terrace with no garage that usually means a front room for a few days.

The walls are the next thing. Older Pontypridd stock is solid stone, often well over 400mm thick, which holds a fixing beautifully but is slow to core for extractor ducting and awkward for a new waste run. We agree the vent position before we start and sheet up properly, because coring stone makes a lot of dust. Floors move, ceiling heights change room to room and almost nothing is square, so Wren base units get levelled one at a time on their legs and packed where needed, with plinths scribed down to the floor. If your kitchen is in the old rear outshut and the wall feels damp, we will show you what is behind the old units before anything new goes on it, because boxing a damp wall in only hides the problem until it swells a carcass.

Out at Church Village, Tonteg, Beddau and Llantwit Fardre the job flips. Rooms are level and square, so the fit itself is quicker, but the walls are plasterboard dot and dabbed onto blockwork and a fixing into the board alone will not hold a loaded Wren wall cabinet. We fix back through to the block with fixings long enough to reach it. Wherever you are in CF37 or CF38, the plan gets checked against the real room before you order, because a Wren showroom design is drawn from the measurements it is given and a valley terrace rarely matches them. Most jobs run five to ten working days, set out in the fixed written quote after the survey.

Fitting Wren kitchens

Wren supply rigid, pre-built units rather than flat-pack, so the fitting work is less about assembly and more about getting a dead level run across floors that are rarely level. Wren also deliver the whole kitchen in one drop, which means you need somewhere dry to store it and a fitter booked for a date that lines up with that delivery. We survey before ordering wherever possible so the plan matches the room rather than the other way round.
