Kitchen Extension

Our kitchen currently is a single galley style. We would like potentially make the kitchen wider and do a double galley style kitchen and knock down the garden room. Has anyone recently had a kitchen extension and could give a rough idea on price or any ideas of how else we could maximise space with our kitchen. Thanks

Comments (3)So, has the approach to your property changed at some point? Because I would expect your entrance hall and front door to be at the front and not at the back? Could you turn it around again? If not, maybe move the front door to what is now the kitchen, making the kitchen part entry hall and part utility (dividing wall). Then you could perhaps create one large kitchen/diner/family space from the current utility, office and family room. The current dining room could be an office? Obviously all depending on whether all that would be possible re: load bearing walls and all that....See MoreKitchen extension

Comments (7)Personally I don’t think your plans work. Because the space is the width it is there is insufficient room for an island plus a useable space on the other side- to try and deal with that you have crammed furniture up to it and made it an unimpressive depth. I also think that it’s a shame to interrupt your view to the garden with your kitchen sink plus it appears that there is garden to the side of the house and if you put the kitchen on this wall you would need to undo a lot if you ever wanted to extend sideways. Also I think the front reception room is small for the principal living room and the sofa space you are planning in the room at the back is very close to the TV. So neither space is big enough for the new square footage. Personally I think you need to go back to the drawing board and next time draw your plans to scale to better visualise them....See MoreConcrete floor in new kitchen extension
Comments (6)I don’t know the costs, but I have seen the odd horror story where the concrete has cracked, so you need to be very careful who you use to lay it. Another cheaper option is porcelain tiles in a concrete finish. Suitable with UFH and can be carried through to outside. Outdoor porcelain tends to be thicker at 20cm depth and more non slip than indoor porcelain. I used porcelain for my small patio (first pic). It needs a jet wash once or twice a year and it truly is non slip, even in the rain....See MoreUser
