Begin with everyday life
What does your kitchen
need to do better?
A useful first brief explains what is difficult now. Is the kitchen cut off from the rest of the house? Does the table block the route outside? Would a different layout solve the problem, or do you need more space? Bring those questions to the conversation.

ASK ABOUT YOUR KITCHEN EXTENSION
Tell Luca about your kitchen extension.
Start with your postcode, what is missing from your kitchen and whether you already have drawings. You can make a first enquiry while your idea is still taking shape.
Tell Luca what you want to change. He can discuss the work and the information needed for a quotation. You can share photographs and drawings afterwards.
Prefer to speak? Call Luca on 07501 316 328.
Prepare a useful quotation brief
Agree the work.
Understand what is included.
A kitchen extension quotation depends on the existing property, proposed work and finish. Discuss the whole project before comparing prices. These are useful points to ask about, not promises that every item is included.
Send your postcode, photographs and priorities.
Include the current kitchen, the rear or side of the property, and any drawings. Explain whether you want room for dining, an island, storage or a better garden connection. Mention timing and any budget you have considered.
From building work to kitchen fit-out: what should Luca price?
Bartholomew O’Toole’s rear-extension account describes an itemised quotation covering demolition, foundations, structural steelwork, drainage, roofing, insulation, electrical and plumbing work, and kitchen installation. Use that real example to ask for a clear scope for your own home.
- The building shell and openings
- Share any architect and engineer drawings. Ask which demolition, foundations, structural openings, walls, roof and glazing are included, and what still needs assessment.
- The kitchen and its services
- List your units, appliances, heating and plumbing needs. Confirm who supplies and installs each item. Bartholomew’s worktops were fitted by an independent business; responsibility should be clear in your quotation too.
- Finish and adjoining work
- Ask about flooring, decoration, making good and the garden. The customer distinguishes his original quotation from later patio and lounge work. Record additional work separately before it starts.
- Choices still to be made
- Identify outstanding selections, allowances and excluded items. Ask how price changes will be agreed. This customer account is evidence of past work, not a promise that every item is included in your project.
Before you get in touch
Questions about your kitchen extension.
Can I discuss a kitchen extension before I have drawings?
Yes. Start with your postcode, current photographs and what you want the kitchen to do. Tell Luca which stage you have reached and ask what further information is needed before the work can be priced.
Should I extend or rearrange the existing kitchen?
Start with the problems you want to solve and the space you already have. Share the layout and your priorities, then discuss what work would be suitable for your property. A larger room is not the only question to consider.
How much will a kitchen extension cost?
The existing structure, size of the proposed work, services, glazing and finish all affect the quotation. Ask for an itemised scope and clarity about exclusions. The customer examples on this page are not price estimates for your own project.
Can we use the kitchen while building work takes place?
That depends on the proposed work and your household. Jim's review describes a temporary kitchen on his project. Discuss access, services and daily arrangements with Luca before deciding whether to remain at home.
Does a quotation include the kitchen units and appliances?
Ask who is supplying each item and who is fitting it. Confirm units, worktops, appliances, flooring and decoration in the agreed scope rather than assuming they are included.
Think about the whole house
A kitchen extension, or space on two floors?
If your plans also include rooms above the kitchen, explain both floors before comparing building quotations. Read our single-storey and double-storey extension brief, then tell Luca which rooms you need, your postcode and the drawings or project information you already have.
Talk through your kitchen plans.
Start with your postcode, a few photographs and the space you need.
