Kitchen extensions in Bolton

We take on kitchen extensions in Bolton as a complete project: survey, drawings, planning or permitted development checks, building control and the construction itself.

Covering Bolton

Bolton is about 11 miles north-west of Manchester. We also cover Farnworth (3 miles to the south-east), Westhoughton and Radcliffe.

Homes in the North West

Across the North West, Victorian terraces, inter-war semis and modern estates all feature, and brick or stone matching is chosen to suit each street.

What do you get with a kitchen extension?

We design the room and the kitchen together, so the island, sink and appliances line up with the structure rather than fighting it. You can use your own kitchen supplier or have us supply and fit one. Either way we co-ordinate the trades so the room is finished in one sequence.

How is a kitchen extension approved in Bolton?

Projects in England go through two separate checks. Planning (or confirmation that the work is permitted development) comes from the district, borough or unitary council, and building regulations approval comes from the council’s building control team or a registered building control approver. Where work touches a shared wall or digs near a neighbour’s foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies.

In England a single-storey rear extension can often go ahead under permitted development: up to 3 m deep on an attached house or 4 m on a detached one, no higher than 4 m, with eaves no higher than 3 m within 2 m of a boundary. Deeper extensions, up to 6 m or 8 m, need prior approval from the council first.

What should I think about before starting?

  • Islands with sinks or hobs need drainage and power routed in the slab.
  • Worktops are templated after the units are fitted, adding a short gap before completion.

What happens after I enquire?

  1. Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
  2. We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
  3. Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
  4. We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
