Kitchen extensions in Margate

Homeowners in Margate can get kitchen extensions from one company: the design, the paperwork and the building work sit with us rather than with three separate firms.

Covering Margate

Our coverage around Margate (CT9) also includes Broadstairs (3 miles to the south-east) and Ramsgate.

Homes in the South East

The South East has a lot of 1930s and post-war semi-detached housing, well suited to rear extensions and hip-to-gable loft conversions, alongside period properties in conservation areas that need a more careful design.

What is 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
  • Tiling, flooring and decoration-ready finish

Do you need permission for a kitchen extension in Margate?

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.

What are the steps?

  1. Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
  2. We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
  3. Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
  4. Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.

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.

Can you visit a house in Margate to quote?

Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
