What is a kitchen extension?
A kitchen extension is an extension designed around a new kitchen, usually an open-plan kitchen, dining and family space at the back of the house. We build the extension and fit the kitchen as one project, so plumbing, electrics and lighting are planned around the layout from the start.
How much does a kitchen extension cost in Pembroke Dock?
In Pembroke Dock, a kitchen extension typically costs £2,050–£3,150 per m² including a mid-range kitchen, including VAT at 20% (standard rate). For a typical 22 m² project that is roughly £45,000–£69,500. Prices across Wales are typically 8% below the UK average for this kind of work, which is reflected in the range for Pembroke Dock. Design, structural calculations and council fees are extra.

The biggest cost drivers are:
- Who supplies the kitchen
- Glazing and roof lanterns
- Kitchen units, worktops and appliances
- Island with sink or hob, which needs services in the floor

Do you need planning permission for a kitchen extension in Pembroke Dock?
Approvals for a kitchen extension in Pembroke Dock follow the rules for Wales. In Wales a single-storey rear extension is often permitted development: up to 4 metres beyond the rear wall and up to 4 metres high, with eaves no higher than 3 metres within 2 metres of a boundary and no more than half the land around the original house covered. Wales has no larger home extension prior approval route, so deeper extensions need a planning application, as do extensions to flats, listed buildings and houses whose rights have been removed.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in Wales, so notices must be served before work on a shared wall, on the boundary, or excavation close to a neighbour’s foundations.
We check this for your address before design work starts, so there are no surprises later.
What we handle
From survey to sign-off, the job normally involves:
- Kitchen layout planned alongside the extension design
- Kitchen fitting, worktops and splashbacks
- Building control sign-off
- Flooring and decoration
- Extension structure, roof and glazing
- Extraction ducted to outside
How long does it take?
Expect 11 to 16 weeks on site, including kitchen fitting. Before that, surveys, drawings and approvals usually take 6 to 12 weeks, longer if the council asks for changes.

Questions about kitchen extensions in Pembroke Dock
Can I buy my own kitchen?
Yes. You can supply it and we fit it, or we supply it as part of the price. Either way we coordinate deliveries with the build programme.
Is underfloor heating worth it?
In a large open-plan space it frees wall space for units and glazing and gives even heat. It is easiest to fit during the build.
Do I need extraction to outside?
Building regulations require kitchen extract ventilation. Ducting to an outside wall is the most effective option and is planned during the build.
