Kitchen extensions in St Andrews

Covering St Andrews

Our coverage around St Andrews (KY16) also includes Cupar, Dundee and Carnoustie.

Homes in Fife

In Scotland many families extend bungalows and semis, while tenement flats bring shared ownership of roofs and walls that needs agreeing early.

What is included in a kitchen extension in St Andrews?

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.

How is a kitchen extension approved in St Andrews?

Projects in Scotland need a building warrant from the council before any building work starts, and a completion certificate once it is finished. Planning permission is a separate decision. The Party Wall etc. Act does not apply in Scotland; shared walls are governed by title deeds and the law of the tenement where relevant.

Scotland has its own householder permitted development rules, and small single-storey rear extensions are often covered. Whatever the planning position, you need a building warrant from the council before any building work starts, and a completion certificate at the end.

What can change the price or programme?

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

Questions about a kitchen extension in St Andrews

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 St Andrews 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.
