Kitchen Extension and Bathroom Renovation in South East London

First-Floor Kitchen Extension in South East London

In the heart of South East London, we redefined what’s possible within a first-floor flat by delivering a sophisticated kitchen extension and full internal upgrade. The homeowner, Michelle, entrusted us to revitalise her apartment’s core spaces—the kitchen and main bathroom—and the result is a beautifully balanced blend of form and function. This bespoke project showcases how intelligent design and craftsmanship can completely transform a compact urban home into a light-filled, elegant sanctuary.

Structural Redesign and Natural Light Integration

The build began with the careful removal of the existing roof structure to allow for a redesigned layout with enhanced head height. A steel beam was expertly installed along the party wall, raising it by one metre to maximise usable space. We constructed a new roof with a strategically placed skylight to invite an abundance of natural light into the kitchen. Bespoke timber French doors and classic sash windows further brightened the interior while adding timeless charm. The kitchen was completed with luxurious Carrara worktops from Jasper Alexander Kitchens, while the bathroom received stylish, low-maintenance tiling for both walls and floors.

Complete Renovation with Seamless Finishes

Throughout the renovation, our team’s problem-solving approach shone—such as repurposing original ceiling joists to improve both structural efficiency and aesthetic appeal. We delivered a complete M&E upgrade, including a new gas boiler, full plumbing and electrical rewiring, and thoughtful finishing touches across the property. The outdoor area was also enhanced with composite decking and a new timber fence, providing both relaxation and privacy. Considering a similar renovation or extension?
