Expert kitchen renovation services in Streatham, SW16. Trusted by homeowners across London Borough of Lambeth.
Streatham's Victorian and Edwardian houses are good candidates for a proper kitchen renovation. The bigger family homes along Leigham Court Road, Streatham Common North, and the streets around Streatham High Road usually have a rear kitchen that is ready for modernising and opening up. We help owners here build the kitchen they actually want.
The Edwardian houses near the Common are generous, with wide rear elevations that take a decent extension. We build these as genuine family rooms. Room for a full size dining table, an island, and a sofa, with wide glazed doors onto the garden. Get it right and the ground floor runs cleanly from the front reception through to the kitchen and out to the garden.
The Victorian terraces along Leigham Court Road and Streatham Hill are tighter, so the focus shifts to light and efficiency. Side return extensions, knocking through structural walls, storage planned so every inch earns its keep. Rooflights and rear glazing turn a dark old kitchen into somewhere bright and welcoming.
Streatham straddles Lambeth and Wandsworth, and we know both councils' planning and building control processes. Our project managers handle the submissions, the inspections, and the certificates so you can just get on with enjoying the design side.
Streatham is a big, mixed neighbourhood running along the A23 in SW16. You get substantial Edwardian houses around the Common, Victorian terraces along the Hill and the High Road, and inter war semis further south. The relative value and the generous room sizes pull in families after space.
A kitchen renovation is one of the biggest wins here, where a lot of homes still have their original cramped layout. Open the space up and it changes how the house lives day to day, and it lifts the resale appeal too.
“SOM pushed our Edwardian kitchen five metres into the garden. We ended up with a kitchen diner that seats twelve, a massive island, and gorgeous crittall doors. Genuinely the best room in the house now. Worth every penny.”

Under permitted development you can usually go 3 metres for a terrace or 4 metres for a detached single storey rear extension. Larger builds up to 6 metres can be possible under the prior approval route. We advise on the most you can achieve on your particular house.
Yes, as long as the room allows enough space to move around it. A side return extension often adds the width you need to make an island work properly, with seating, storage, and appliances built in.
