Homes in the East Midlands

The East Midlands combines red-brick terraces in the cities with a lot of post-war and modern estate housing, so rear extensions, garage conversions and loft conversions are all common.

What do you get with a kitchen extension?

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.

  • Planning or permitted development check
  • Drainage, gas and electrics planned to the kitchen layout
  • Steelwork, roof, glazing and insulation

How is a kitchen extension approved in Skegness?

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 Skegness homeowners check first?

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

What are the steps?

  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. Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
  4. 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
