When a utility room extension makes sense
- Busy family homes
- Kitchens that have run out of space for appliances
- Houses with a side passage or small rear corner
A good utility works like a back-of-house corridor: in from the garden, boots off, coats on hooks, washing on the way through. We plan the door positions so it doesn't become another room to walk around.

Working in Alloa
Our survey diary covers Alloa, including FK10. We also work in nearby Stirling (6 miles), Grangemouth (8 miles), Falkirk (8 miles).
Dunfermline, in Fife, is roughly 13 miles from Alloa and also on our list. Across Scotland, extensions follow Scottish planning and building standards, including the building warrant process, which we build into the programme from the start.
Planning and approvals in Alloa
In Scotland, householder permitted development rules (Class 1A for single-storey ground-floor extensions and Class 1B for extensions of more than one storey) allow some smaller extensions without a planning application, within limits on depth, height and distance from the boundary. Conservation areas and listed buildings are more restricted.
The planning position for a specific Alloa address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
In Scotland a building warrant from the council is needed before work starts on almost any extension, and a completion certificate is issued when the work is accepted. Building standards are set in the Scottish technical handbooks.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Where work affects a shared wall or a neighbour's land, we agree access, protection and making good with your neighbour in writing before work starts.
Applications are decided by your council as planning authority.

Questions people ask about utility room extensions
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Alloa, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Do you cover all of Alloa?
Yes. We cover Alloa and the surrounding parts of Forth Valley. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Who do I contract with for a utility room extension in Alloa?
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.
Does a utility extension need planning permission?
Often not, if it is single storey and within permitted development limits. We check this for your property.
Can a utility have a toilet?
Yes, space permitting. A WC needs drainage and extraction, which we plan into the design.
