Kitchen renovation in Golders Green homes, planned around the kerb
Kitchens in the homes set back from Finchley Road, Golders Green Road and North End Road may already have been moved, enlarged or knocked through. A wall that looks like a light partition can still carry the floor above. A chimney breast or disused flue may be hidden behind old units. Hampstead Renovations checks the structure, drainage and existing services before a layout is drawn, so the design follows what the house can support.
Opening a kitchen into the garden raises different questions from refitting it in place. Barnet’s interactive tool gives a first view of whether a rear extension needs planning permission, and a lawful development certificate can settle it formally. Taking out a loadbearing wall needs Building Regulations approval. A gas hob is connected only by engineers listed on the statutory register for gas work, and their registration is confirmed before booking. Each of these is checked for the exact Golders Green address.
Cabinets, worktops and appliances come in large loads, and kerb space close to the Golders Green station and bus interchange can be hard to find. Where a bay is needed, Barnet accepts suspension requests for building works. Every vehicle serving the job must then park inside the suspended length. Smaller loads timed to each stage suit these streets better than stacking a whole kitchen in the hallway. Long worktops are carried in once, after templating.
Describe how the household cooks and which appliances are staying. Send the full Golders Green address, with photographs of the room, the kerb outside and any wall you would like removed. Note the tenure, and whether a freeholder must agree the work. Hampstead Renovations then sets out a written scope for structure, services, units, worktops and making good. Our own teams carry it out, photographing hidden pipework and cabling before it is boxed in.
