Local to Gwynedd

Towns we cover in Gwynedd include Bangor, Gwynedd, Caernarfon, Holyhead, Llangefni. In Wales, terraced houses with rear offshoots are common in the towns, while detached houses and bungalows dominate in rural areas.

Is a kitchen extension right for your house?

  • Small or closed-off kitchens
  • Families who want cooking, dining and living together
  • Homes being prepared for sale or a long-term stay

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 and approvals in Gwynedd

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.

Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (AONBs) and World Heritage Sites have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.

Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent before the foundations go in.

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.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).

Your questions about a kitchen extension in Gwynedd

Who do I contract with for a kitchen extension in Gwynedd?

Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Gwynedd, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

Will my neighbours in Gwynedd be involved?

If a planning application is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.

How much does a kitchen extension cost?

For the extension itself our guide range is about £1,670 to £3,260 per m² including VAT. A standard 20 m² kitchen extension is typically around £39,000 to £49,500 in Gwynedd, plus the kitchen itself, which commonly adds £9,000 to £20,000 for a mid-range design.

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.
