Kitchen Extensions in Taunton
Rock Projects creates architect-led kitchen spaces that improve not only flow, light, and functionality but also personal interaction and family well-being. All construction services relating to these home additions are carried out in-house for homeowners in Taunton, Wellington, and the surrounding areas.
Bespoke Kitchens Delivered with Structure and Precision
Choosing the right builder is fundamental to the success of any property renovation. At Rock Projects (SW) Ltd, we deliver carefully planned kitchen extensions across Taunton, Wellington, and the surrounding areas, providing clients with well-considered spaces that enhance both everyday living and long-term property value.
Kitchen extensions are frequently delivered as part of wider residential improvements, including house extensions, garage conversions, and new build homes, and require a disciplined approach to structure, services, and finishes. Our role is to manage the entire process, ensuring that the new space integrates seamlessly with the existing property and performs as intended over time.
New Kitchens Tailored to All South West Property Styles
Every kitchen extension we deliver is bespoke, designed to respond to the scale, character, and layout of your existing home. Our team of experienced kitchen fitters works closely with clients, architects, and kitchen designers to ensure the finished space is both practical and architecturally coherent.
Our kitchen extension projects commonly involve:
- Structural alterations and installation of steelwork
- Opening up rear or side elevations to improve light and circulation
- Reconfiguration of internal layouts alongside new floor area
- Integration of glazing, doors, and connections to external spaces
The result is a kitchen environment that feels deliberate and resolved, rather than appended.

- Island Kitchens and Entertaining Areas – Designed around workflow and interaction, incorporating central islands, breakfast seating, and defined zones.
- Kitchen–Dining Rooms for Family Living – Practical, durable spaces designed for everyday use while retaining a refined aesthetic.
- Pantries, Larders, and Utility Rooms – Supporting spaces that improve storage, organisation, and efficiency.
- Bespoke Kitchen Designs – Including contemporary, country, cottage, or period-inspired one-off kitchens tailored to your property.

Bespoke Kitchens as Part of Wider Residential Works
These popular property extensions are often delivered alongside broader residential projects, such as internal reconfiguration or full refurbishment. Managing these works together allows for improved sequencing, reduced disruption, and a more cohesive outcome.
Our kitchen fitters regularly deliver kitchen extensions across Taunton and Wellington, working with private clients and professional teams to ensure that each project enhances the property as a whole and its market value.
FAQs – Kitchen Extensions
Do kitchen extensions require planning permission?
They will only require planning permission where the size, height, or proximity to boundaries exceeds permitted development limits. Most projects are completed well within building regulations whilst still providing ample internal space. If necessary, we can advise at an early stage and work alongside architects or planning consultants to ensure appropriate approvals are in place before construction begins.
Can a kitchen extension be combined with internal reconfiguration?
Yes. These extensions are frequently combined with internal reconfiguration to improve layout, flow, and natural light. This may involve removing internal walls, relocating kitchens, or forming open-plan arrangements, all coordinated with structural and regulatory requirements.
How are plumbing, electrics, and heating managed?
We coordinate all mechanical and electrical services throughout the build, ensuring that plumbing, electrics, heating, and ventilation are properly integrated. This includes accommodating specialist appliances, underfloor heating, advanced lighting schemes, and other smart systems where required.
Do you work with bespoke kitchen designers and suppliers?
Yes. We regularly collaborate with bespoke kitchen designers, cabinetmakers, and specialist suppliers throughout the South West, coordinating installation alongside the wider construction programme to ensure accuracy and quality.
How long does a kitchen extension typically take?
Timescales vary depending on complexity, structural alterations, and the level of internal fit-out. Once scope and design are defined, we provide a clear programme and maintain communication throughout the build.
