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?

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.

What approvals does a kitchen extension need in England?

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. Deeper extensions, up to 6 m or 8 m, need prior approval from the council first.

What can affect a kitchen extension?

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

Kitchen extensions: common questions

Do kitchen extensions need planning permission?

They follow the same rules as any single-storey extension. Many in England are permitted development.

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.
