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 Prestatyn?
In Prestatyn, 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. The guide for Prestatyn reflects typical costs in Wales, roughly 8% below the UK-wide figure. Design, structural calculations and council fees are extra.

Your quote will depend mainly on:
- Extension size and roof design
- Island with sink or hob, which needs services in the floor
- Glazing and roof lanterns
- Who supplies the kitchen
Your exact price depends on the survey and drawings. The guide price tool gives a quick range in the meantime.
Do you need planning permission for a kitchen extension in Prestatyn?
Here is how the rules work for a kitchen extension in 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.
Building regulations in Wales are set by the Welsh Government. Approval comes from the council’s building control service or a registered building control approver, with inspections during the work and a completion certificate at the end.
Our first visit includes a check of your planning history, so you know the route before paying for drawings.
What we handle
From survey to sign-off, the job normally involves:
- Kitchen fitting, worktops and splashbacks
- Drainage and water supply positioned for the sink and appliances
- Building control sign-off
- Flooring and decoration
- Kitchen layout planned alongside the extension design
- Electrics, lighting plan and sockets
How long does it take?
Allow 11 to 16 weeks on site, including kitchen fitting. Allow time beforehand for drawings and approvals, usually 6 to 12 weeks.

Questions about kitchen extensions in Prestatyn

Should the kitchen be designed before the extension?

Usually 3 to 6 weeks at the end of the job, once the back wall is opened and the new kitchen goes in. We can help set up a temporary kitchen.
