About a kitchen extension with bedrooms above
This service suits you if your kitchen is too small and you also need another bedroom. Building both floors at once costs less than a single-storey kitchen extension now and a first floor later. You get a layout that works for cooking, eating and the garden, a bedroom plan that works upstairs, the approvals your nation needs and the build, carried out by vetted teams working under S&K. Kitchen units are priced separately.
We cover Abergele (LL22) and the places around it, including Rhyl (4.4 miles), Colwyn Bay (6.0 miles) and Prestatyn.

Planning and building regulations in Abergele
In Wales, a kitchen extension with bedrooms above can be permitted development if the kitchen goes no more than 4 m and the first floor no more than 3 m beyond the original rear wall, with the first floor 10.5 m from the rear boundary. This lets the kitchen project further than the bedrooms. Otherwise a householder application costs £585.
Approval in Wales: Householder planning application: £585. Councils normally decide householder applications within 8 weeks.
Building regulations: Building regulations approval under the Welsh Approved Documents, which differ from England's in places (notably energy efficiency).
Design points for Abergele homes
Bedrooms over a kitchen
Bedrooms above need an escape window or a protected route to the stairs, plus good sound insulation from the kitchen below. We position the stairs, landing and bedroom doors so the new rooms connect naturally to the existing first floor.
Services and drainage
Sinks, dishwashers and an upstairs bathroom all need waste routes to the drains, often near where the extension goes. We check the drains early and plan soil stacks, gas and electrical supplies so the kitchen layout is not limited later.

Start at your house
We come to your home in Abergele, measure up, check the ground floor walls and roof structure, and note anything near the boundaries.

Build and hand over
We manage the build from groundworks to decoration-ready finish and hand over with the completion paperwork.
Questions about kitchen extensions with bedrooms above in Abergele

Who handles building regulations for a project in Abergele?
We handle it as part of the project. What's needed in Wales: building regulations approval under the Welsh Approved Documents, which differ from England's in places (notably energy efficiency). We prepare the drawings and the engineer's calculations, book the inspections and pass you the completion paperwork at the end.
How much does a kitchen extension with bedrooms above cost in Abergele?
Our guide for Wales, which covers Abergele, is £1,840–£2,480 per m² including VAT. A typical project with a 4 m × 3.5 m footprint on two floors (28 m² of new floor space) comes to about £51,500–£69,500 (kitchen units and worktops priced separately). Design and approval fees are extra, and we fix the build price in writing once the design is agreed.
Can I keep using my kitchen during the build?
For part of it. The new structure can be built while your existing kitchen stays in use, but when the rear wall is opened and the new kitchen is fitted there will be several weeks without one. We plan when this happens and help you set up a temporary kitchen elsewhere in the house.
Can the kitchen be bigger than the bedrooms above it?
Yes. With planning permission, the ground floor can extend further than the first floor, giving a part single, part two-storey design. In Wales, permitted development allows the ground floor to go 4 m and the first floor 3 m beyond the original rear wall. We show both options at the design stage.
