Kitchen Extensions in Romford
One of the largest towns in outer East London. Romford is in outer London, where interwar and 1950s semis and terraces are common, and many of them have hipped roofs.
A rear or side-return kitchen extension is a very common project in outer London houses. In outer London boroughs, hipped-roof semis and terraces are common, and the borough planning team is the body that decides on anything outside permitted development. We offer a free survey and a clear written quote from the start.
Planning and approvals for kitchen extensions in Romford
Because Romford sits within the London Borough of Havering, planning applications go to Havering Council rather than an Essex district council. Single-storey rear kitchen extensions can often be built under permitted development within the depth and height limits, while larger or side extensions may need permission.
We confirm which approvals apply to your Romford property at the survey, and we prepare and manage the applications for you.
