Our clients approached us with a common problem: their Victorian terraced home had a small, dark kitchen that felt disconnected from the garden. With a growing family, they needed more space for cooking, dining, and entertaining.
We designed and built a 6m x 4m single-storey rear extension that completely transformed the ground floor. The new space features a fully fitted kitchen, dining area, and family living space—all flowing seamlessly together and out to the garden through stunning bi-fold doors.
Three large skylights flood the space with natural light throughout the day, while underfloor heating ensures year-round comfort. The result is a contemporary family hub that's become the heart of the home.
3.5m wide aluminium bi-fold doors opening fully to the garden
Three Velux skylights providing abundant natural light
Energy-efficient heating throughout the extension
Bespoke fitted kitchen with integrated appliances
Large format porcelain floor tiles throughout
Recessed LED spotlights and pendant lighting
This project presented several challenges that required careful planning and execution:
Excavation, foundations, and drainage installation
Steel beam installation, brickwork, and roof structure
Roof covering, skylights, windows, doors, plumbing, and electrics
Insulation installation, underfloor heating, and plastering
Floor tiling, kitchen installation, decorating, and final touches
