Kitchen extensions in Lincoln

We take on kitchen extensions in Lincoln as a complete project: survey, drawings, planning or permitted development checks, building control and the construction itself.

Covering Lincoln

Alongside Lincoln, we also cover Newark-on-Trent (16 miles to the south-west), Retford and Grantham.

Homes in the East Midlands

The East Midlands combines red-brick terraces in the cities with a lot of post-war and modern estate housing, so rear extensions, garage conversions and loft conversions are all common.

What do you get with 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.

  • Combined building and kitchen layout design
  • Drainage, gas and electrics planned to the kitchen layout
  • Steelwork, roof, glazing and insulation

How much should I budget for a kitchen extension?

Use these ranges to budget for kitchen extensions; the survey turns them into a fixed price for the agreed specification.

What approvals does a kitchen extension need in England?

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 should Lincoln homeowners check first?

  • Extraction to the outside must be planned before the walls go up.
  • Underfloor heating suits large kitchen-diners with glazed walls.

From first call to completion

  1. Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
  2. We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
  3. Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
  4. Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
