Kitchen-diner rear extension in Spalding
An open-plan kitchen, dining and family room that opens straight onto the garden. We design, get the approvals for and build kitchen-diner rear extensions in Spalding and the surrounding area, with one contract from the first survey to building control sign-off.
We cover Spalding (PE11) as part of our Lincolnshire work. We usually keep the working kitchen where the old one was and put the dining table in the new space by the doors, which suits most Spalding homes.

Do you need planning permission for a kitchen-diner rear extension in Spalding?
Here is how the rules in England apply to a kitchen-diner rear extension in Spalding.
In England a single-storey rear extension can often be built under permitted development: up to 3 metres beyond the original rear wall of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, no higher than 4 metres, with eaves no higher than 3 metres if any part is within 2 metres of a boundary.
England also has the larger home extension route: a single-storey rear extension of up to 6 metres on an attached house or 8 metres on a detached house, after prior approval from the council. The council notifies your neighbours and has 42 days to decide; the fee is £249 (£310 for applications made from 8 December 2026). The route is not available on designated land such as conservation areas.
Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.
What are homes in Spalding like to extend?
Spalding has plenty of inter-war semis and bungalows, and single-storey rear extensions suit both.

FAQ
Kitchen-diner rear extension questions in Spalding
Can I live at home while the extension is built?
Usually yes. Most of the work is outside until the back wall is opened near the end, and that stage is screened off.
How much does a kitchen-diner rear extension cost in Spalding?
As a guide, £1,840–£3,010 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, 3 m wide × 4 m deep (12 m²): about £22,000–£36,000 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.
Can I add a utility room?
Often. A narrow utility or boot room along one side keeps the washing machine out of the open-plan space.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Spalding house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
Who will build my extension?
Vetted building teams working under contract to us. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd for the design and the build.
Is the site visit in Spalding free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
