Covering Lytham St Annes
Lytham St Annes sits 12 miles west of Preston, with Blackpool 6 miles to the north-west and Southport 7 miles to the south.
Homes in the North West
Terraced housing is a defining feature of many North West towns, which brings party walls and narrow access into most projects, with more space to extend on suburban semis.
What does a kitchen extension involve?
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

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. Deeper extensions, up to 6 m or 8 m, need prior approval from the council first.
What can change the price or programme?
- Islands with sinks or hobs need drainage and power routed in the slab.
- Extraction to the outside must be planned before the walls go up.

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