Kitchen Renovation


Why opt for a kitchen renovation?

Getting on the property ladder for the first time can be daunting and difficult, climbing the property ladder may seem some way off, however, there are properties out there that require renovation works to make them habitable. The purchase of a property that requires work combined with the services of an experienced and reputable kitchen building team could be your solution with the finished product giving you the home you want and the possibility of added value to boot!
Please see our featured project and testimonial entitled Refurbishment and restoration of a Victorian terraced cottage as this was a renovation project undertaken for first time buyers.

Kitchen planning permission and Building Regulations

If as part of kitchen renovation works you plan to make internal structural changes such as the removal or addition of a wall you should not need to apply for planning permission. If however you live in a listed building, you will need listed building consent for any significant works whether internal or external.
If you wish to build a new internal wall, remove an internal wall, or form an opening in an internal wall, building regulations will normally apply. The two kinds of internal walls are, load bearing and non-load bearing and would demand different treatment.
See our pages on garage conversions and extensions if you are considering either of these in addition to renovation works as these provide details for planning permission and building regulations.
