Rear Kitchen Extension

At Nottingham Builders And Joinery, we recently had the pleasure of completing a stunning rear kitchen extension in Sherwood, Nottingham. This project was designed to enhance the existing space while maintaining the charm and character of the home. Our clients, passionate DIY enthusiasts, approached us with detailed architectural plans and a clear vision for their home improvement.

Understanding the homeowners' commitment to preserving their property's aesthetic, we sourced reclaimed common bricks that perfectly matched the original structure. This attention to detail ensured the extension blended seamlessly with the existing home, maintaining its period charm while adding modern functionality.

Maximising Natural Light With A Roof Lantern

One of the standout features of this extension is the flat warm-deck roof fitted with a stunning roof lantern. This design choice floods the new kitchen space with natural light, creating a bright and airy environment. The roof lantern adds visual appeal whilst contributing towards energy efficiency by reducing the need for artificial lighting during the day.

Elegant Crittall-Style Windows & Doors

To achieve a contemporary and elegant space, the homeowners opted for Crittall-style windows and doors. These sleek, black-framed installations provide a striking contrast against the reclaimed brickwork, offering a perfect blend of modern and traditional design elements. Additionally, the expansive glass panels enhance the connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces, making the kitchen feel even more open and inviting.

Understairs W/C & Utility Room

Functionality was a key consideration for this project. To make the most of the available space, we incorporated a compact understairs W/C and a dedicated utility room. These additions provide the homeowners with essential storage and practical facilities while keeping the main kitchen area clutter-free. The utility room offers ample space for laundry and additional storage, making daily household tasks more convenient.

A Blank Canvas For Personalisation

As part of their hands-on approach, the clients requested that the interior be left as a blank canvas, allowing them to install their own kitchen and flooring. This decision gives them the flexibility to tailor the project to their exact specifications, making sure the space truly reflects their personal style. Our team delivered a high-quality, structurally sound extension in Sherwood, providing the perfect foundation for them to complete their dream kitchen.

Challenges & Solutions

One of the key challenges in this project was ensuring that the new structure complemented the existing property while incorporating modern features. By carefully selecting materials and finishes, we achieved a harmonious balance between old and new. Additionally, meticulous planning and coordination allowed us to complete the build efficiently and on schedule.

Client Satisfaction

The homeowners were thrilled with the outcome, appreciating the attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into every aspect of the build. By providing a solid and well-executed structure, we gave them the perfect foundation to bring their interior vision to life.
