Covering Elgin
We work in Elgin (IV30) and the places around it, including Lossiemouth, Forres and Buckie.
Because Moray covers a wide area, we confirm availability after the first call and include any travel costs in the written quote rather than adding them later.
Homes in Moray
Housing in Scotland includes tenements in the cities, sandstone villas, inter-war and post-war semis and a large number of bungalows, which often suit dormer and upward extensions.
What is a kitchen extension?
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
- Steelwork, roof, glazing and insulation
- Tiling, flooring and decoration-ready finish
How much does a kitchen extension cost in Elgin?
What kitchen extensions typically cost. These are guide ranges; the written quote for your house replaces them.
| 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 |
How is a kitchen extension approved in Elgin?
Scottish projects follow a different process from England: the council issues a building warrant before work starts and accepts a completion certificate at the end, alongside any planning permission needed. We prepare both applications.
Scotland has its own householder permitted development rules, and small single-storey rear extensions are often covered.
What can change the price or programme?
- Islands with sinks or hobs need drainage and power routed in the slab.
- Underfloor heating suits large kitchen-diners with glazed walls.
What happens after I enquire?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
What people ask before starting
How long will we be without a kitchen?
Usually only the final few weeks, when the old kitchen comes out and the wall is opened. We can help set up a temporary kitchen.
Is underfloor heating worth it?
In large open-plan rooms with big glazed doors it frees up wall space and heats evenly. We include it as an option.
