Hi, I have recently been in touch with an architect regarding a kitchen extension, approximately 3m x 5m. Prices are through the roof at the moment and he mentioned he is doing an extension, it's costing around 100k, this is for a bolt on for a period property. We are in a smaller property but would still need a more cost effective ways of doing this. Has anyone done any wooden bolt on extensions this year or can recommend other ways of extending? Many thanks!

Hi there, I would highly recommend Orr Barry (Safta Cook on Instagram) You can check out his food outside Moxons on Saturdays but he also does a delivery service on Fridays. The dishes he makes are excellent and it's always the best quality ...he can do anything to suit your party! https://www.thejc.com/lifestyle/food/safta-s-food-from-tel-aviv-to-east-dulwich-orr-barry-mamilla-bertie-gail-s-1.516187 Good luck!

Hi, We would like to change our front door soon to a composite type.

Thanks, will check them out!
