Having a new kitchen can have a bigger impact on your lifestyle than you might think.
According to a recent survey, based on more than 3,000 responses from UK homeowners using the Houzz® platform, more than a third of homeowners report leading a healthier lifestyle after a kitchen renovation, from eating more fruits and vegetables to preparing more meals at home. It also leads to other lifestyle changes such as spending more family time in the kitchen and entertaining more.

These hot of the press project photos really capture the essence of the kitchen and bathroom we have just completed in Wordsworth Avenue, Penarth.
Nothing better than starting the week with a great customer review. Thank you Mr Matthews!
Here are a few snap shots from the latest kitchen project to join our porfolio of work.
We took a tired kitchen with a poor, anti social and impractical layout and transformed it into an open plan kitchen, dining room and snug, with a cosy and stylish traditional feel - perfect for family life.
We really appreciate it when our customers taking time out of their busy lives to leave us a review. A big thank you to Mr Stephens for this glowing one last week:
"I invited Shaun Davies Home Solutions to revamp my kitchen which involved the installation and fitting of new work surfaces, sink, cooker and gas hob and high quality tile flooring. The work was of a very high standard and carried out with skill and professionalism and to my entire satisfaction. I would recommend him to anyone seeking a top rate home improvement specialist."
Shaun Davies Home Solutions is bringing the next step in virtual reality to its kitchen, bedroom and bathroom designs!
There is no doubt that visualising the end result is one of the biggest challenges facing those undertaking a new home project. When it’s hard to visualise, making design choices can sometimes feel daunting and stressful.
Are you looking to update your kitchen, and fancy more contemporary look? Then why not follow designer leaders and step away from the typical high gloss units and try a matt finish kitchen instead. We love the matte look as it can add an edgy sophistication to kitchen and in particular recommend Kitchen Stori’s brand new Strada Matte range. It has a beautifully modern, handle-less door design which exudes a silky, durable, matt painted finish. The range also has curved doors which gives the kitchen a premium high end designer look.
Wordsworth Avenue, Penarth:
A glowing review from another happy customer! Fantastic kitchen and bathroom renovation project. Thanks for the great review on FreeIndex:
" My husband and I had never been involved with building work before and were nervous when searching for a company to take on our rather large project of a new living/dining/kitchen and bathroom. We had bought our house purely to renovate and make into our dream home, therefore getting the detail spot on was important to us.
Photos of one of our recently completed projects have just been added to our project portfolio page.
The kitchen, in a traditional apartment on Westgate Street, Cardiff, incorporated a beautiful oak worktop, shaped to create a breakfast bar seating area to maximise space in a bijou kitchen.

According to Kitchen Stori, the UK and Ireland's leading kitchen brand, one of the big looks for kitchens trending at the moment and set to be even bigger next year is a smooth, painted kitchen door finish.
The painted door gives a classic feel to the kitchen, yet the smooth finish injects a more contemporary edge, making it perfect for those seeking to achieve a seamless blend of traditional and modern in their homes.

AS THE FINAL FINISHING TOUCHES TO OUR NEW DESIGN STUDIO TAKE PLACE, SHAUN DAVIES EXPLAINS HOW IT IS NO ORDINARY SHOWROOM.
"My vision for our Design Studio stemmed from a general dislike of standard kitchen and bathroom showrooms. Their layouts never reflect a true or typical space, and the ambience is generally sales orientated and not conducive to decision making.
