Covering Launceston
Launceston is about 40 miles north-east of Truro. We also cover Bude (15 miles to the north-west), Bodmin and Plymouth.
Projects in Cornwall are taken on by arrangement, and any travel and accommodation costs for the team are shown openly in the quote.
Homes in the South West
In the South West, matching local stone, render or slate is often the main design question, and conservation areas and listed buildings are common in historic towns.
What is included in a kitchen extension in Launceston?
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
- Tiling, flooring and decoration-ready finish

Do you need permission for a kitchen extension in Launceston?
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 can affect a kitchen extension?
- Islands with sinks or hobs need drainage and power routed in the slab.
- Underfloor heating suits large kitchen-diners with glazed walls.
What are the steps?
- 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.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
Your questions answered
Do kitchen extensions need planning permission?
They follow the same rules as any single-storey extension. Many in England are permitted development.

In large open-plan rooms with big glazed doors it frees up wall space and heats evenly. We include it as an option.
