Home Extensions in Kingston upon Thames
Home Extensions in Kingston upon Thames
We have completed 25 home extension and loft conversion projects in Kingston upon Thames, KT1 and KT2
The borough’s main town, with a housing stock varied enough that few projects here look quite the same.
With the average home in Kingston now valued at well over £750,000, extending rather than moving is an increasingly common choice. Our in-house planning consultants know the borough’s requirements inside out, including one planning route that’s rarely available anywhere else we work.
What we do in Kingston upon Thames
Our Kingston work spans the full range — rear extensions, loft conversions, and combinations of the two that add space both upstairs and at the back of the house without eating into the garden. The borough’s piggyback roof extension route, rarely available elsewhere, is worth asking about for any loft-level project. It’s always worth asking whether your property could be a candidate.
Planning permission in Kingston upon Thames
Most single storey extensions fall under permitted development, but because parts of Kingston sit within conservation areas, a full planning application is often required. From survey to planning approval typically takes 2-3 months, with build time depending on the size of the project.
Frequently asked questions
Many single storey extensions fall under permitted development, but because parts of Kingston are in conservation areas, planning approval is often required instead. We check your exact position at the free consultation before any design begins.
It’s a form of roof-level development that’s rarely available or approved in other boroughs we work in, but which Kingston accommodates under householder planning applications. We assess whether your property could be a candidate as part of every free consultation.
Yes. The historic town centre and surrounding streets carry conservation area designations, and parts of the borough also carry Local Area of Special Character status. Both affect what’s achievable under permitted development, so we check your specific property before any design work begins.
Yes — many Kingston homeowners do exactly this, adding space both upstairs and at the back of the house in a single project without reducing garden size. It’s one of the most common project types we take on in the borough.
