Bournemouth Kitchen Extension And Composite Decking

Project Description
Our latest Bournemouth kitchen extension with bespoke outdoor decking is now complete! Discover how we transformed a cramped kitchen and underutilised garden into a bright, multifunctional space for living and entertaining.

Key Details

• Side kitchen extension with bi-fold doors leading to a composite decking terrace
• Downstairs cloakroom/toilet seamlessly integrated into the new layout
• Custom kitchen island bar with quartz worktops and built-in storage
• Natural larch cladding for external walls and decking borders
• Frameless skylight to flood the space with natural light

The Challenge
The existing kitchen was narrow, poorly connected to the garden, and lacked practical storage and modern amenities. The client wanted a fluid indoor-outdoor living area with room for cooking, dining, and hosting, as well as a new downstairs toilet.

Our Solution

• Extension & Structural Work: Extended the kitchen sideways to create space for a generous island bar and dining area, complemented by a large skylight to brighten the interior.
• Outdoor Decking & Cladding: Installed low-maintenance composite decking with glass balustrades, linked directly to the kitchen via bi-fold doors. Clad the exterior of the extension in vertical larch for a contemporary, weather-resistant finish.
• Downstairs Toilet: Plumbed a sleek, compact cloakroom beneath the staircase, featuring minimalist tiles and space-saving fixtures.
• Kitchen Island Bar: Designed a multifunctional island with seating for six, pendant lighting, and concealed appliances for a streamlined look.
• Finishing Touches: Added underfloor heating, durable porcelain floor tiles, and charcoal grey composite decking to contrast with the natural larch cladding.

The Result
A bold, modern extension where indoor and outdoor living flow together effortlessly. The open-plan kitchen, enhanced by the skylight and bi-fold doors, feels airy and welcoming, while the decking provides a stylish alfresco dining area. The larch cladding and composite materials ensure durability all year round in Bournemouth’s coastal climate.
