Kitchen Extensions in Reigate
Our Home Builders Discuss Popular Kitchen Layouts  

One Wall Kitchens

Perfect for smaller areas, such as apartments and cottages, everything you need in a workable kitchen is compacted here to fit along a single wall. With limited storage facilities, it makes sense to create a floor-to-ceiling larder at one end and choose integrated appliances and handleless doors. This forms a more streamlined and less cluttered effect.

Galley and Pullman Kitchens

Running two sets of parallel units together – whether one is central or positioned at an opposing wall – these suit both small spaces and long, narrow areas, such as side-return kitchen extensions. The difference between the two is simple – galley kitchens have closed ends, whereas Pullman layouts are open-ended.

L-Shaped Kitchens

Experts in various house refurbishments, our new home builders at Joshua Lewis Carpentry and Construction Ltd recommend L-shaped layouts for homeowners looking to maximise food preparation zones in smaller kitchens. The return can also double as a breakfast bar with plenty of storage facilities underneath.

U-Shaped Kitchens

A popular layout in mansard loft conversions, U-shaped kitchens are large enough to accommodate all necessary accoutrements without additional wall units. Hence, they are an ideal solution for maximising natural light. If you’re moving into a new loft or having your own renovated, our designs can make the most of the existing space.

Peninsula Kitchens

Also known as island kitchens, peninsulas suit homeowners who favour open-plan living in larger interiors, such as our wraparound property extensions. With storage at a maximum, there doesn’t have to be an emphasis on wall units but rather strategically placed larders. These layouts also suit our Reigate clients who enjoy entertaining whilst cooking.
