Covering Newcastle upon Tyne
Our coverage around Newcastle upon Tyne (NE1, NE98) also includes Gateshead, Gosforth and Felling.
Homes in the North East
In the North East, terraces, semis and bungalows all offer room to extend, with stone-built villages and conservation areas in parts of County Durham and Northumberland.
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.
- Drainage, gas and electrics planned to the kitchen layout
- Steelwork, roof, glazing and insulation
- Tiling, flooring and decoration-ready finish

How is a kitchen extension approved in Newcastle upon Tyne?
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 should I think about before starting?
- 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.
What are the steps?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
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.
Can you visit a house in Newcastle upon Tyne 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.
