Side Return Advice - Landells Road


Dulwich-ite

Recommended Posts

Hi All,


First time poster and will be a resident in East Dulwich very soon.


We have recently bought a 2 bed terrace house on Landells Road.


We would like to have the side return extension done.


HOWEVER, some of the prices that are being thrown around terrify me.


The area of the side return is around 6.88 sq meters. The kitchen in its current state is 7.17 sq m.


Could anyone please advise what the building costs of this would be (ignoring the cost of the kitchen itself)?


To cut back on cost we would likely not extend past the current length of the house. The doors etc don't need to be too fancy.


Any help/experience would be massively appreciated. Any builders out there please chip in!!


Thanks in advance,

Have a word with Angela Lyon of Orbital Chartered Surveyors. As a Chartered Quantity Surveyor she can cost a project accurately to within pennies. No shabby estimates with her. As a Chartered Buildings Surveyor, yup, she's double chartered, she can take into consideration factors relating to the existing building and if you like her over-all cost, she can get the whole project done for you under one roof, which is her motto. She's over 40 years experience in this (started in her teens). It's worth a chat with someone that knows what they're talking about at least. Then you'd get an idea if the prices you're getting are realistic or off this planet.

Hi Jimi,


Thanks for your advise, that is not a route we had previously considered.


It would be great to hear from anyone who has done a basic side return extension on a 2 bed Victorian.


I should have mentioned, it is end of terrace if that makes a difference...


Many thanks,

    • If no one else has a problem, then it sugggests that the delivery person may not be aware of any harm and would respond well to a conversation. It also goes without saying that just because no one else has a problem, that the OP is not valid in raising their issues.
    • Remember, you never know what someone else is going through behind closed doors....
    • Is anyone else having difficulty booking Silver Swim sessions (Tuesday and Thursday between 3pm-4pm?) Almost all the spaces are taken before the online booking system opens at 10pm several days before. Last night there appeared to be one space available for next Tuesday. I tried to book at one second past 10pm but was unsuccessful. This seems to have been a recent phenomenon. I made a telephone call this morning but just received a recorded message saying that the voicemail box was full. Am I right in assuming that in person bookings are now taking precedence over online ones?
    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc.
