Kitchen extensions in Frome

Planning kitchen extensions in Frome? We design and build them for houses across Somerset, and we fix the price for the agreed specification in writing before any building work starts.

Covering Frome

Our coverage around Frome (BA11) also includes Warminster (6 miles to the east) and Trowbridge.

Homes in the South West

Homes in the South West range from coastal and rural properties in stone and slate to city terraces and modern estates, so extensions are designed to match the local materials.

What goes into 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.

  • Planning or permitted development check
  • Kitchen fitting, worktop templating and appliances

Planning and building rules in Frome

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.

What can change the price or programme?

  • 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.

How does the project run?

  1. Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
  2. Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
  3. Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
  4. We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.

Kitchen extensions: common questions

Can I use my own kitchen company?

Yes. We work to their drawings and co-ordinate delivery and fitting dates.

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.

Who deals with the council for a project in Frome?

We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
