Covering Burnham-on-Sea
Across TA8, TA9, we can visit, measure and advise. Neighbouring towns we cover include Weston-super-Mare (7 miles), Bridgwater (8 miles), Clevedon (15 miles), Taunton (16 miles).
Kingswood, in Gloucestershire, is roughly 26 miles from Burnham-on-Sea and also on our list. In the South West, local stone, render and brick vary from town to town, so matching materials is a big part of designing an extension that looks right.
Is a kitchen extension right for your house?
- Homes being prepared for sale or a long-term stay
- Families who want cooking, dining and living together
- Small or closed-off kitchens
We start with the working triangle and the island, then set the doors, glazing and roof lights around it. Getting this order right avoids the classic mistakes: a sink against a blank wall, glare on the hob or a fridge blocking the garden view.
Planning rules that apply in Burnham-on-Sea
In England a single-storey rear extension can usually go up to 3 m beyond the original rear wall of a semi-detached or terraced house, or 4 m on a detached house, without a planning application, provided it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m within 2 m of a boundary and, with other buildings, covers no more than half the land around the original house. The larger home extension prior approval scheme raises those depths to 6 m and 8 m, with neighbours notified and a 42-day decision.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.
If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Your questions about a kitchen extension in Burnham-on-Sea
Will my neighbours in Burnham-on-Sea be involved?
If a planning application or prior approval is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.
How long does a kitchen extension take to build in Burnham-on-Sea?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–12 weeks design and approvals.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Burnham-on-Sea, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Can you fit a kitchen I buy elsewhere?
Yes. We can fit it or work with your supplier’s fitters. We need the layout early so that drains, services and lighting are in the right place.
How much does a kitchen extension cost?
For the extension itself our guide range is about £1,840 to £3,570 per m² including VAT. A standard 20 m² kitchen extension is typically around £42,500 to £54,500 in Burnham-on-Sea, plus the kitchen itself, which commonly adds £9,000 to £20,000 for a mid-range design.
