Kitchen extensions in Eastleigh

Covering Eastleigh

We work in Eastleigh (SO50, SO97) and the places around it, including Southampton, Winchester and Totton.

Homes in the South East

Many South East homes are inter-war or post-war semis and detached houses with room for rear and side extensions, while historic town centres and villages bring conservation area and listed building controls.

What is included in a kitchen extension in Eastleigh?

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.

Do you need permission for a kitchen extension in Eastleigh?

In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it 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 can affect a kitchen extension?

Worktops are templated after the units are fitted, adding a short gap before completion.
Underfloor heating suits large kitchen-diners with glazed walls.

Questions about a kitchen extension in Eastleigh
