Kitchen-diner rear extension in Bromborough
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 Bromborough and the surrounding area, with one contract from the first survey to building control sign-off.
We cover Bromborough (CH42, CH62 and CH63) as part of our Merseyside 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 Bromborough homes.

These are guide ranges; the written quote after the survey is the figure that counts.
Do you need planning permission for a kitchen-diner rear extension in Bromborough?
The planning route for a kitchen-diner rear extension in Bromborough is set by England's householder rules and your council.
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. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development, prior approval or a planning application.
What are homes in Bromborough like to extend?
Bromborough has long runs of terraced houses with back yards and alleys, plus 1930s semis further out. Yard extensions on terraces are often single-storey and close to both boundaries.

FAQ
Kitchen-diner rear extension questions in Bromborough
Is the site visit in Bromborough free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In England, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or the foundations are close to a neighbour's building. We serve the notices.
Do you fit the kitchen?
Yes, whether you buy it yourself or we supply it. We take the measurements from the built shell, not the drawings.
Will I need a structural engineer?
Yes for the beam over the new opening and usually the foundations; we arrange them and their calculations go to building control.
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.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Bromborough?
Often not for a single-storey rear extension of up to 3 metres (4 metres on a detached house) under permitted development, or up to 6 or 8 metres with prior approval, unless the house is in a conservation area or its rights have been removed.
