Covering Crowborough
Crowborough sits 21 miles north-east of Brighton, with Tunbridge Wells 7 miles to the north-east and East Grinstead 9 miles to the north-west.
Homes in the South East
The South East has a lot of 1930s and post-war semi-detached housing, well suited to rear extensions and hip-to-gable loft conversions, alongside period properties in conservation areas that need a more careful design.
What is included in a kitchen extension in Crowborough?
A kitchen extension is a single-storey extension designed around a new kitchen, usually creating an open-plan kitchen, dining and family space that opens onto the garden. Planning the kitchen layout at the same time as the building means the drains, steels, windows and power end up where the kitchen needs them.
- Combined building and kitchen layout design
- Kitchen fitting, worktop templating and appliances
- Tiling, flooring and decoration-ready finish
How much should I budget for a kitchen extension?
Typical ranges for kitchen extensions. Ground conditions, access and specification move the final figure, which we fix in writing before work starts.
| Kitchen extensions | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Extension build | £2,600 to £4,000 per m² |
| Kitchen supply and fit, mid-range | £10,000 to £20,000 |
| Kitchen supply and fit, high-end | £20,000 to £40,000 |
What approvals does a kitchen extension need in England?
English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.
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.
What should Crowborough homeowners check first?
- Islands with sinks or hobs need drainage and power routed in the slab.
- Underfloor heating suits large kitchen-diners with glazed walls.
