Kitchen extensions in Burnley

Homeowners in Burnley can get kitchen extensions from one company: the design, the paperwork and the building work sit with us rather than with three separate firms.

Covering Burnley

We work in Burnley (BB11) and the places around it, including Nelson, Accrington and Rawtenstall.

Homes in the North West

Terraced housing is a defining feature of many North West towns, which brings party walls and narrow access into most projects, with more space to extend on suburban semis.

What does a kitchen extension involve?

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.

  • Combined building and kitchen layout design
  • Kitchen fitting, worktop templating and appliances
  • Tiling, flooring and decoration-ready finish

What approvals does a kitchen extension need in England?

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 Burnley homeowners check first?

  • Extraction to the outside must be planned before the walls go up.
  • Underfloor heating suits large kitchen-diners with glazed walls.

From first call to completion

  1. Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
  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. Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
