Types of Kitchen Extensions
Every home is different, and the right extension depends on your property style, space, and lifestyle needs. We design and build all types of kitchen extensions in Ealing, tailored to maximise your home’s potential.
Rear Kitchen Extension
The most popular type of extension, a rear kitchen extension expands into your garden. Perfect for creating large open-plan kitchens with dining areas and bi-fold doors.
Side Return Kitchen Extension
Ideal for Victorian and Edwardian terraced homes in Ealing, side return extensions make use of narrow alleyways at the side of the house to transform dark kitchens into bright, spacious living areas.
Wrap-Around Kitchen Extension
Combining both rear and side return extensions, wrap-around extensions provide the maximum amount of additional space. They’re ideal if you want a large kitchen-diner with a modern open-plan layout.
Double-Storey Kitchen Extension
If you’re looking for even more space, a two-storey extension can extend both your kitchen and an upstairs bedroom or bathroom. It’s one of the best ways to future-proof your home.
Contemporary Glass Kitchen Extension
For homeowners who want a truly modern look, glass kitchen extensions add stunning floor-to-ceiling glazing, frameless roof lights, and seamless garden access.
