Recommendations for kitchen extension & landscaped garden


Katiesa

Recommended Posts

:)Hi,


We are considering doing our side return, extending the kitchen into the garden with folding glass doors out onto the garden and the garden to be landscaped i.e decking.We'd also like to squeeze in a downstairs toilet, possible shower room. Its a big job and we're keen to get a few quotes from reliable, competitively priced local tradesman/building companies and also local landscape gardeners. I know lots of houses in dulwich will have had this done and we are really hoping to get some recommendations. Many thanks if you can help :)

I can highly recommend Simon Whitehead Architects, who offer a professional and friendly service, and have an excellent reputation in the local area.


Their contact details are: 020 7183 1063 or e-mail: [email protected].


Best to speak to Simon direct who can assist and advise.

Our neighbours used Tony Howard (07932 553704) for their kitchen extension, based on recommendations from my brother (who also had his kitchen extended) and us (Tony's practically rebuilt our house over the past 10 years).


Tony's been back this week converting our neighbour's loft. Next week he's sorting out our shower room (the only job which we risked with another builder since he wasn't available and which, after 5 years, needs to be gutted and re-done).

For the landscaping element I would strongly recommend Mhairi of Grozone based in Penge.

They can produce really lovely garden designs and can do the landscaping or just the landscaping.

Hi there


We have just had a rear extension done by Tom Williams from the London Renovation Company. Lives locally and been a really great and careful/ considerate builder.


Worth a quote i would say. Have a look at his website http://www.thelondonrenovationcompany.co.uk/


Cheers

Hi Katiesa,


Finding the perfect builder makes a big difference to a project ? and isn?t as hard as you might think. Look around for someone who is dedicated, inventive, highly skilled and adheres to the estimate. It might seem like wishful thinking but they do exist.


Here you can watch fantastic team of builders and architect in action !

All the best

I would totally recommend Craig Osbourne who has just completed our kitchen extension / side return. He runs a small family business based in Kent and is therefore very reasonably priced. He works with a small team and has done an amazing job with a lovely finish and a great attitude which is important when they are in your house every day. His number is 07889 134829.
I would recommend CGR contracts, they are just finishing a job in birkbeck place, they are small family run company very reliable with pride in their work they left the site clean and safe every night before they left. Email is [email protected]

We used Simon Whitehead to see us through planning approval for our kitchen extension back in 2012. We are now selling our house and the buyer has some general questions re. planning approval and the design. When I contacted Simon for comment he has completely ignored our requests for help or feedback and it is for this reason that we wouldn?t recommend using him for the job. Even given the lapse of time since the end of job, I think there are other firms out there that would be more willing to respond or offer guidance to a former client in a similar situation.

    • Apparently the police took a call from a certain C Little.  I understand that it was difficult to hear the exact name as there was a lot of clucking in the background.  Various farm animals are helping with enquiries, worryingly a few foxes have been seen on the prowl so this may not end well.  I say police protection for C Little, now. Eagles and seagulls have also been seen on large numbers in the area.  I'd keep away as it could be carnage. Certainly watch your ice cream cornets and perhaps wear ear plugs. Not sure if this is anything to do with the local authority or the Labour government, no doubt someone will find a link.
