Kitchens Cardiff | SJB Trade Kitchens

Cardiff’s housing stock spans centuries of architectural styles, and each presents its own kitchen fitting challenges. The Victorian bay-fronted terraces of Pontcanna, Canton, and Roath are among the most sought-after properties in the city, but their kitchens — typically narrow rear extensions with uneven walls and sloping floors — make standard flat-pack units a poor fit. In Cathays and Plasnewydd, the dense rows of Edwardian terraces house a large student and rental population where durable, well-built kitchens are essential. The inter-war semis of Whitchurch, Rhiwbina, and Llandaff offer more generous kitchen spaces but frequently feature chimney breast recesses and original pantry cupboards that demand bespoke sizing. Cardiff Bay’s modern waterfront apartments and the new-build estates spreading across Pontprennau and St Mellons require clean, contemporary designs that maximise open-plan layouts. Made-to-measure kitchen units address all of these scenarios — every cabinet built to the exact dimensions of your space, with no filler panels and no wasted corners.

SJB Trade Kitchens is a kitchen specialist supplying rigid-built, made-to-order kitchen units across Cardiff and the whole of South Wales. Every unit is constructed with 18mm Egger or Kronospan carcasses and solid 18mm backs — not cheap hardboard — with Blum soft-close hinges and Blum Antaro drawer boxes fitted as standard. Our units are supplied direct at 30-50% cheaper than Howdens, with transparent pricing and no inflated list prices. Whether you are a trade fitter working on a terrace renovation in Splott, a landlord updating a student let in Cathays, or a homeowner planning a kitchen extension in Cyncoed, we build to your exact dimensions at no extra charge.

Delivery to Cardiff typically takes around 10 working days from order confirmation. Our showroom at Unit N, Central Trading Estate, Coulton Close, Oldham, OL1 4EB is approximately three and a half hours from Cardiff via the M5 and M6. Choose from over 300 MFC carcass finishes and door styles including Painted Shaker, Handleless Matt, Handleless Gloss, Slab Matt, Slab Gloss, and Shaker Foil. Our kitchen specialist works with our manufacturer to ensure every order is right first time. Call 0161 509 4221 to discuss your Cardiff kitchen project.

Can you supply kitchens for the Victorian terraces in Pontcanna and Canton?

Yes. The bay-fronted Victorian terraces across Pontcanna and Canton are one of the most common property types we supply for in Cardiff. Their narrow rear kitchens demand precise measurements, and our made-to-order units are built to the exact millimetre — custom widths, depths, and heights — so everything fits perfectly without filler panels.

How long does delivery take to Cardiff?

Delivery to Cardiff typically takes around 10 working days from order confirmation. We use a specialist pallet courier service covering the whole of Wales, and our kitchen specialist will confirm the exact delivery window once your order is placed.

Do you supply kitchens for student rental properties in Cathays?

Absolutely. We supply kitchens for landlords and HMO operators across Cardiff’s student areas, including Cathays, Plasnewydd, and Roath. Our rigid-built units with 18mm backs and Blum soft-close fittings are built to withstand heavy use, and our pricing at 30-50% cheaper than Howdens makes volume projects highly cost-effective.

What door styles are popular with Cardiff homeowners?

Painted Shaker is consistently our most popular range for Cardiff’s period terraces and semis — it suits the character of Victorian and Edwardian properties beautifully. For the modern apartments around Cardiff Bay and the new-build estates, Handleless Matt and Slab Matt are popular choices for a clean, contemporary look.

Can I get samples posted to my Cardiff address?

Yes. If visiting our Oldham showroom is not practical, we can post door and finish samples directly to your Cardiff address so you can assess the quality, colour, and texture before ordering. Call 0161 509 4221 or email info@sjball.uk to request samples.

Fantastic experience with Steve from start to finish. He designed an amazing kitchen in a small space and truly went above and beyond what I expected. He took the time to listen carefully to my ideas and requirements, and was never pushy throughout the process. His knowledge, creativity, and attention to detail really stood out at every stage. Everything was planned and executed with care, and he made sure even the smallest details were perfect. The end result is a beautifully designed, highly functional kitchen that I’m absolutely thrilled with. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

After visiting a few "big brand" kitchen places & being absolutely gob smacked at the prices, the pushy salesmen & the amazing "discounts" they claimed were on for "1 week only".... I went searching for a small local business. I found SJB on eBay initially & then popped along to his Instagram account to have a nosey at his products etc. I dropped him a message & got a reply pretty much straight away. I sent our measurements, needs & ideas & Steve got to work & brought our design to life! He worked fast & was extremely helpful. He made changes if we wanted them, he went hunting for a particular handle I wanted (a lot cheaper too as 1 company wanted £12 a handle, Steve found them for just £4) We visited his show room to make sure because we weren't being charged the earth, we weren't getting a cheap / flimsy product. Well we absolutely weren't! We had a slight issue with one of the cabinets being damaged upon arrival, spoke to Steve, who immediately ordered a replacement to be sent. Steve was contactable throughout, nothing was too much trouble, & he's just a genuine nice guy, who runs a fantastic small business. 100% recommend using SJB Trade Kitchens especially over the giant money grabbing companies!

Steve is absolutely epic! Really nice guy. 100% genuine & to be trusted. Really easy to work with. Couldn't do enough and always on hand. The kitchen was amazing quality and the kitchen looked exactly like the images he produced on his computer. The units came ready built which saved a lot of time! Even if you're not a joiner it was really easy to assemble and fit. The kitchen is great quality and a VERY competitive price! 100% recommended! Thank you so much!

I cannot stress how happy I am with my kitchen from SJB. We didn’t had a great experience with our builder during the renovation of our house however the final kitchen made up for it. SJB offered high quality finishes at quick turnarounds and even made a custom made island which is better than I ever expected. I will be returning soon to SJB for my bedroom wardrobes!

I came across SJB on Ebay, and contacted Steve. He was very helpful in inviting us to his kitchen showroom to look at the various kitchens. This helped  a lot as he was on site to talk us through ideas and suggestions. We chose, what we thought, a relatively priced kitchen as it was for a rental property, but the finished result has been just amazing! It looks so expensive, even the fitter said it was very good quality for a fraction of what other places charge. Steve kindly designed the kitchen, gave us good ideas and was always available on the phone if we ever needed advice. I have never purchased a kitchen without the company providing a fitter as I have always doubted if the kitchen would fit how it should, but this has completely changed my perception. It has been flawless and friends and family have compared it to their much more expensive ones, saying this looks amazing and better than theirs! If you need a kitchen, with a gentleman that goes over and above, SJB is the place to go. You will not be disappointed, the whole process has been stress free thanks to Steve, I honestly cannot thank him enough for all his efforts and kindness. We hope to come back very soon!

I've worked in the building trade for over 20 years, the kitchen supplied by Steven was a better quality then a Howdens or magnet kitchen and also a good bit cheaper. Steven's easy to deal with, everything arrived as quoted no problems no damaged items and on the exact day specified. Would highly recommend.

I first came across Steve on Ebay last year when I moved into my bungalow and kept hold of his details. Fast forward a year, I checked Google reviews and finally contacted him sending measurements/photos and went to meet him when on holiday nearby. Steve was so helpful and came up with the exact kitchen plan I had in my head, two other companies couldn't do this, despite visiting my home and meeting with them. Took me a while to find a joiner and after lots of emails, Whatsapp messages and calls, I could actually place the order. All delivered to North East Scotland, a few doors followed on as were out of stock, a couple of damaged items replaced and when I needed a corner post and dishwasher door replacement due to longer screws being used in error, Steve was only too happy to send them. It's a very good quality kitchen at a great price and I'm not planning on needing another, but if I did, I wouldn't hesitate on contacting SJB again. We got there in the end Steve, with hard work from my plasterer, joiner, plumber, electrician and flooring guys and I love my new kitchen, so thank you, hard to believe it's the same room ❤️
