Kitchen Extension
Crystal Palace
Make your kitchen bigger, brighter, and built for real life.
Side Return Extensions
That narrow strip down the side of many Crystal Palace terraces is wasted space. A side return fills it in and opens the plan. You get better flow, more storage, and a spot for a dining table without pushing into the garden. We handle drainage, steel design, and light strategy so the new space feels calm, not dark.
Good for Victorian and Edwardian terraces in SE19 that want a bigger kitchen without a deep rear build.
Rear Extensions
Want a stronger link to the garden and more room for an island. A rear extension is the simple, proven route. We design for daylight first with roof lights or a glazed screen. Then we anchor the plan with a hard working kitchen layout. Power, plumbing, and underfloor heating are set early so the finish is clean.
Good for families that need a safe play view and a social space for weekends.
Wraparound Extensions
When the plot allows, a wraparound makes the biggest change to daily life. It blends a side return and a rear build so you gain a full family zone. More walls for tall units. A utility that hides noise. A table that fits everyone. We keep structure slim so you get wide, open lines and no awkward columns.
Good for corner plots and homes that want a true “kitchen, living, dining” space.

Cost Guide: How Much Does A Kitchen Extension Cost In Crystal Palace
Costs vary by size, structure, access, and the level of finish. As a simple guide for SE19 homes:
Side return from £2,200 to £2,800 per m² for the build.
Rear extension from £2,000 to £2,600 per m² for the build.
Wraparound from £2,200 to £3,000 per m² for the build.
Allow for kitchen units and worktops, glazing, fees for structural design and Building Control, and a 10 to 15 percent contingency. We will price each stage clearly so you can decide step by step. Want a ballpark now. Call and tell us your rough size and wish list. We can usually give a range on the phone.
Planning And Permissions
Many Crystal Palace homes can use Permitted Development. If you need a householder application, we prepare drawings and manage the process. For terraces and semis, we serve Party Wall notices and work with your surveyor. If your drains cross the line, we help with Build Over Agreements. You get one pack with all paperwork in plain English.
Daylight, Structure, And Comfort
Kitchens live or die by light. We plan roof lights, an open steel layout, and glazing that makes the space feel easy at all times of day. Underfloor heating keeps feet warm. Good extraction keeps smells out of bedrooms. We think about sockets, bins, and breakfast clutter before we pour any concrete.
We can help you shape that space. Maybe you want a long island down the middle. Maybe you want a snug corner for the kids. Or a dining spot that looks out over the garden. Tell us what matters to you, and we’ll help bring it to life.
Materials And Finishes
We source neat brick matches for SE19 stock. We align pointing to keep the old and new honest. Inside, we use moisture-resistant boards in wet zones, hard-wearing paints, and sealant lines that stay sharp. Worktops are templated after units go in, so the fit is perfect. We hand over paint codes and manuals for everything.
