Kitchen extensions in Richmond

Kitchen extensions in Richmond from SK Residential: design, approvals and the build handled under one contract, with one point of contact from the first visit to completion.

Covering Richmond

Richmond is about 8 miles west of London. We also cover Isleworth (2 miles to the north-west), Hounslow and Barnes.

Homes in London

Terraced houses dominate many London neighbourhoods, so most projects involve shared walls, narrow access and a party wall process. Conservation areas are widespread, and some boroughs have their own mansard and basement guidance.

What is included in a kitchen extension in Richmond?

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
  • Kitchen fitting, worktop templating and appliances

Kitchen supply and fit, mid-range£10,000 to £20,000

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 should Richmond homeowners check first?

  • Worktops are templated after the units are fitted, adding a short gap before completion.
  • 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. Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
  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.
