Covering Stoke-on-Trent
Alongside Stoke-on-Trent, we also cover Newcastle-under-Lyme (2 miles to the west), Longton and Kidsgrove.
Homes in the West Midlands
Across the West Midlands, terraced and semi-detached houses in red brick are typical, along with post-war estates where garage conversions and side extensions are popular.
What goes into 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
- Steelwork, roof, glazing and insulation
- Kitchen fitting, worktop templating and appliances

Planning and building rules in Stoke-on-Trent
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.
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
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.
Do kitchen extensions need planning permission?
They follow the same rules as any single-storey extension. Many in England are permitted development.
Who deals with the council for a project in Stoke-on-Trent?
We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
