What are kitchen extensions?

Kitchen extensions are an affordable way to create more space for cooking, eating, and entertaining. Capital Kitchen Fitters will work with you to find out what sort of kitchen extension would be best suited to your home-whether it is a full or partial renovation that can help increase the value of your property.

The benefits of a kitchen extension

The benefits include:

More storage space

This is vital because increased storage will help eliminate clutter and also make it easier for you to find whatever equipment or crockery that’s needed.

Bigger kitchen area

A bigger kitchen area, so there’s room for everyone during dinner time.

When are kitchen extensions not advised?

We understand that every customer has different needs, which is why Capital Kitchen Fitters offers an expert consultation service before any building begins on-site at your home. We carefully listen to our customers’ plans for their homes as well as advice about structural changes to make sure we offer the right advice for each project.

However, some situations that kitchen extensions may not be the best idea include:

– If you plan to move soon, kitchen extensions may not be for you. Capital Kitchen Fitters advise that the resale value of your home could potentially decrease due to the alterations on-site at your current property, which is why it’s important to consider this before starting any building work on an extension. Furthermore, don’t forget about removal costs and fees if moving into a new place isn’t financially viable right now;

– Having too many structural problems with your home can be dangerous as well as frustrating, so always ensure there are no damp issues or serious cracks within walls first;
