Living in a busy part of London, our client needed more space and a better connection to their garden. They envisioned a large, open-plan area to house a new kitchen, transforming the back of their home. Our solution was a bespoke 19.8 sq/m modular house extension, expertly designed and installed to integrate flawlessly with the existing property. The result is the bright, modern family hub they had always wanted, delivered with minimal disruption to their daily lives.
Creating a significant new living area in a central London property often comes with challenges, and this project was no exception. With limited side access, all materials and waste had to be carefully moved through the house, a task our team managed with precision and care. The core of the project's success lay in the dramatic structural alteration required to connect the old with the new. We began by demolishing an old concrete patio and removing the existing rear wall of the house.
The vision was for a wide-open, seamless transition into the new extension. To achieve this, we installed a substantial 3.5-metre steel beam, creating a stunningly open aperture that completely transformed the feel of the ground floor. Our design focused on light and comfort. A large 2m x 1m flat rooflight was incorporated to flood the new kitchen area with natural daylight. For the exterior, a contemporary black render finish provides a striking, modern look. Internally, a plumbed-in wet underfloor heating system ensures the space is warm and welcoming throughout the year.

How much does a house extension in Isle of Dogs, London cost?
This bespoke extension in Isle of Dogs, London came in at £75,000, covering groundworks and foundations, the structural steel frame, external cladding, roofing, a full internal fit-out, electrics and flooring. Every Vita Modular project is individually priced against survey and specification.
How long does a modular extension take to build?
This project ran for 4 weeks on site from structural works through to handover. Because the steel frame is engineered and largely prefabricated off-site, that is significantly less time on site than a traditional brick-and-block extension of the same scope.
Do I need planning permission for an extension in Isle of Dogs, London?
Many single-storey rear extensions fall under Permitted Development, depending on the size, the property and local authority rules. Vita Modular prepares the technical building-control drawings and manages the building-control process to completion; planning applications and party-wall matters are handled separately.
Is a Vita Modular extension as strong as a traditional brick build?
Yes. Our extensions are built on an engineered structural steel frame rather than timber or masonry. Every frame is calculated by a structural engineer, installed on proper foundations, and certified through an independent building-control process to completion.
What is included in the fixed price?
The fixed-price contract covers foundations, the engineered steel frame, external walls and cladding, the roof, painted walls and ceilings, electrics and lighting, LVT flooring, and Vita Modular’s design fee and building-control management — with no hidden extras.
