Home Renovations, Extensions & Painting in Larkfield
Larkfield and East Malling sit just off the A20 twelve minutes from the office, and the postwar housing there means straightforward extensions and refurbishments on a known layout. Extensions, full refurbishments, kitchens and bathrooms, bespoke features and decorating in Larkfield, from one team, on one written quote.

Renovation work in Larkfield
Larkfield is mostly interwar, postwar and modern housing with a smaller older core, so on the majority of properties a rear or side extension inside the permitted development limits needs a building regulations application rather than planning permission. A lawful development certificate is still worth having so the paperwork is there when you sell. In practice most of what we are asked for in Larkfield is rear and side extensions on postwar semis and detached housing, with everything else on the list available alongside it.

What renovation work do you do in Larkfield?
Across Larkfield (ME20) it is mostly rear and side extensions on postwar semis and detached housing, full refurbishments, kitchens and bathrooms, and redecorations, plus the kitchens, bathrooms, tiling and bespoke joinery that go with all of it. Larkfield is mostly interwar, postwar and modern housing with a smaller older core, so on the majority of properties a rear or side extension inside the permitted development limits needs a building regulations application rather than planning permission. A lawful development certificate is still worth having so the paperwork is there when you sell. Every project starts with a visit and a written quote setting out the scope and a programme, rather than a figure guessed over the phone.
Do you charge extra to come out to Larkfield?
No. Larkfield is on the doorstep of the Maidstone office, so there is no travel charge and we can normally get out to look at a project within a few days.
Have you worked in Larkfield before?
Yes. Larkfield and East Malling sit just off the A20 twelve minutes from the office, and the postwar housing there means straightforward extensions and refurbishments on a known layout. Give us a call and we will tell you what we usually find on property around Larkfield Leisure Centre, and what yours is likely to need before anything is priced.
Does the type of property in Larkfield change the job?
It does, but in a helpful way. Larkfield is largely interwar, postwar and modern housing built to a limited number of designs, so the wall construction, the roof pitch and the likely foundation depth are broadly known before we arrive. That makes both the programme and the price reliable. It also means a rear extension is usually permitted development with a building regulations application rather than a planning application, which takes weeks out of the front end of the job.
Will I get a written quote and a programme for work in Larkfield?
Always. Every project in Larkfield gets a site visit, then a written quote setting out the scope, what is included, what is excluded and a payment schedule tied to real milestones. Anything that changes once work starts is priced and agreed in writing first, so the final figure is not a surprise.
How soon could you start work in Larkfield?
Larkfield is around 4 miles from the Maidstone office, so getting out to look and quote is quick, usually within a week. When a project can actually start depends on the diary and on how far along your drawings and approvals are. We would rather give you a real date than a hopeful one, so call and we will tell you where the next honest slot is.
