Kitchens and rear extensions in Hampstead Garden Suburb
Enlarging a kitchen in a Hampstead Garden Suburb house brings structure, drainage and services into play at once. Hampstead Renovations begins with a measured survey and a note on the condition of the rooms involved. Walls to be opened, drain runs and existing supplies are resolved on paper before any application is made. Nothing for the exterior is ordered until the relevant consents are in hand, which keeps materials matched to what was approved.
Permission for a kitchen extension in the Suburb runs on more than one track. The exact address is checked against the conservation area and both Article 4 directions, and the Trust’s estate office confirms whether a separate estate consent is needed. That consent follows its own drawings. A gas hob, if planned, is connected only by an engineer on the statutory register for gas work, whose registration we confirm before booking. The building control route is then chosen.
An extension dug into a Hampstead Garden Suburb garden may come close to protected trees. Trees in the conservation area need written notice to Barnet before work to them, and those under a preservation order need an application. Each tree and hedge on the plot is recorded, and root protection areas are marked out before any digging is planned. Spoil and materials are routed and stored clear of those zones, and hedges along the access are protected.
Explain what is not working in the current kitchen, what you want to change and whether an extension is part of the plan. Send the full address, any Trust correspondence and photographs of the room, the rear elevation and nearby trees. Hampstead Renovations produces a written scope that separates confirmed items from provisional ones, and the price follows it. Our own teams carry out the build, from structure through to the last fitted unit.
