Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need planning permission for an extension in Ipswich?

Many Kitchen Extensions fall under Permitted Development (PD), meaning you may not require full planning permission. However, if your home lies in a Conservation Area—common in the historic streets of Ipswich—specific rules apply. We provide expert guidance to help you navigate these local requirements effortlessly.

How much value will a kitchen extension add to my home?

A high-spec kitchen extension is widely regarded as a smart way to increase a property’s value. In the Ipswich market, a well-executed extension can typically add between 10% and 15% to the final sale price, making it a sound financial decision.

Can you match the existing brickwork of my home?

Absolutely. As masonry specialists, brick-matching is our forte. We source local materials and use traditional mortar-blending techniques to ensure your new extension looks like it has always been part of the property.

How long will the construction process take?

A standard ground-floor extension typically takes 10 to 14 weeks from the first excavation to the final internal finish. We provide a clear, realistic schedule before we break ground to ensure your life remains as undisrupted as possible.
