What is included

- Wide sliding or bifold doors to the garden
- Kitchen fitting by our team or coordination with your supplier
- Roof lantern or rooflights positioned over the work zones
- Drainage and services designed for sinks, island and appliances

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.

Covering Gelligaer
Site visits are available across Gelligaer (CF46, CF82). We also work in nearby Blackwood (2 miles), Pontypridd (6 miles), Caerphilly (6 miles), Risca (8 miles).
For homes towards Gwent, Ebbw Vale is around 8 miles away. Welsh housing ranges from stone terraces in the valleys to render-and-slate houses and modern estates, and the Welsh planning rules differ from England's in several places.
Do I need planning permission in Gelligaer?
In Wales a single-storey rear extension can usually project up to 4 m beyond the rear wall without a planning application, if it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m and overall height to 4 m within 2 m of a boundary, and covers no more than half the land around the original house. Wales has no larger home extension prior approval scheme.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in Wales as in England: notice must be served before work to a shared wall, building on the boundary, or excavating close to a neighbour's foundations.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).
