Recommendations for kitchen extension & landscaped garden


Katiesa

Recommended Posts

:)Hi,


We are considering doing our side return, extending the kitchen into the garden with folding glass doors out onto the garden and the garden to be landscaped i.e decking.We'd also like to squeeze in a downstairs toilet, possible shower room. Its a big job and we're keen to get a few quotes from reliable, competitively priced local tradesman/building companies and also local landscape gardeners. I know lots of houses in dulwich will have had this done and we are really hoping to get some recommendations. Many thanks if you can help :)

I can highly recommend Simon Whitehead Architects, who offer a professional and friendly service, and have an excellent reputation in the local area.


Their contact details are: 020 7183 1063 or e-mail: [email protected].


Best to speak to Simon direct who can assist and advise.

Our neighbours used Tony Howard (07932 553704) for their kitchen extension, based on recommendations from my brother (who also had his kitchen extended) and us (Tony's practically rebuilt our house over the past 10 years).


Tony's been back this week converting our neighbour's loft. Next week he's sorting out our shower room (the only job which we risked with another builder since he wasn't available and which, after 5 years, needs to be gutted and re-done).

For the landscaping element I would strongly recommend Mhairi of Grozone based in Penge.

They can produce really lovely garden designs and can do the landscaping or just the landscaping.

Hi there


We have just had a rear extension done by Tom Williams from the London Renovation Company. Lives locally and been a really great and careful/ considerate builder.


Worth a quote i would say. Have a look at his website http://www.thelondonrenovationcompany.co.uk/


Cheers

Hi Katiesa,


Finding the perfect builder makes a big difference to a project ? and isn?t as hard as you might think. Look around for someone who is dedicated, inventive, highly skilled and adheres to the estimate. It might seem like wishful thinking but they do exist.


Here you can watch fantastic team of builders and architect in action !

All the best

I would totally recommend Craig Osbourne who has just completed our kitchen extension / side return. He runs a small family business based in Kent and is therefore very reasonably priced. He works with a small team and has done an amazing job with a lovely finish and a great attitude which is important when they are in your house every day. His number is 07889 134829.
I would recommend CGR contracts, they are just finishing a job in birkbeck place, they are small family run company very reliable with pride in their work they left the site clean and safe every night before they left. Email is [email protected]

We used Simon Whitehead to see us through planning approval for our kitchen extension back in 2012. We are now selling our house and the buyer has some general questions re. planning approval and the design. When I contacted Simon for comment he has completely ignored our requests for help or feedback and it is for this reason that we wouldn?t recommend using him for the job. Even given the lapse of time since the end of job, I think there are other firms out there that would be more willing to respond or offer guidance to a former client in a similar situation.

    • Hi, Just a quick note to say it's six months since I launched Eats Dulwich. In that time I've reviewed 28 restaurants. Usually four or five a month except for a month when I came down with gout, which I guess is an occupational hazard. Don't say I don't suffer for my art. Early on someone – Sue, I think – asked me what I'm going to do when I've reviewed every restaurant in East Dulwich. I'm nowhere near that point, but what I have found is that a lot of new openings have tended to be in Rye Lane, so the site has expanded to cover SE15, hence the slight change of name (still haven't had any cease and desist letters from anything with a similar name).  Anyway, the site is still free, it would be great if as many readers as possible here can subscribe so that they automatically get new posts (when you try to subscribe the default might be paid subs but that's down to Substack, just tick the free option instead) as I don't post everything on EDF. Obviously you can get reviews elsewhere if you want, but I think this is the only proper site for local East Dulwich people written by a local East Dulwich person. If you like eating out please have a read. And if there are other places you think I should visit please mention them below and i'll do my best to try them.

    • Can you explain what your point was, then? Because it isn't clear to me. No. Perhaps you could provide a link and explain its relevance? That would be helpful     Those figures suggest that over 10,000,000 voters were not "rejecting a far left party."
    • Anyone can deliver for Evri - my daughter having just passed her driving test tried Evri to make some money - they basically give you a route and as many parcels as they think you can cope with - you make money for each one you deliver, so you can imagine - speed is the priority. Why would they wait for you to answer the door when they can just throw it and take a photo? If you have a choice, choose a different courier service or shop elsewhere where they do.  
    • Boil - it’s the customer’s fault, not the delivery person’s.
