Kitchen Extension cost UK - what are the likely costs?

How long is a piece of string? It is so variable and all dependent upon the size, design, level of specification etc. - even the type of property being extended together with its location. Therefore, as every house extension is pretty unique it is near on impossible to determine actual or near prices for the cost of a kitchen extension until such times that a design and specification has been prepared by your house extension designer.

Some ‘guestimates’ may be possible simply by using some basic maths. House extension costs per square meter seem to vary between £1,500.00 to £2,500.00 per square meter of new floor area created. Then add in how much you intend to spend on the kitchen furniture and appliances and then add around £2k for a typical installation cost for a medium to quality end kitchen. Then allow 10% contingency and VAT on all that too.

The only true way of establishing the kitchen extension costs are to have the design and specification properly prepared by an experienced house extension designer or architect and then go out for at least three builders tender prices.
