Extensions

Create Your Space

Extensions
House extensions are one of the most popular and exciting choices for homeowners across the UK. Able to enhance appearance and functionality, an extension represents the best choice for maximising every square inch of your home.
With ever-increasing house prices, stamp duty and the cost and stress of moving home, the benefits of remaining in one place are obvious. With an extension, you can enjoy that ‘new home’ feeling with extra space in a much more cost-effective way.

Extension Types

The ideal type of extension for any home will depend much on the size and nature of the job, as well as the needs of the homeowner. Also varying due to available space and budget, you need to know that you’re getting the right choice for your property.

We have a team who are creative to bring your specifications into the extension. Our professionals are experts in bringing the desired outcomes to bring in class and elegance to an existing property through unique and stylish extensions. Here’s a selection of the Extension types you could consider.
  • KITCHEN EXTENSION - Kitchens are often small, meaning that the ideal extension needs to cater for it. They can be extended by opening up the wall to the backyard, providing the maximum usable area and allowing increased ventilation and natural light. Depending on the available space, a dining area can be added for family homes, with kitchens able to be created to include traditional open plan dining or island-style designs.
  • GARAGE EXTENSION - When homeowners require extra living space, a garage extension is often the best choice. Here, a full coverage wall is constructed to conceal the opening side of the garage, with the newly extended space able to be converted into a bedroom, utility space or anything else the client desires.
  • SINGLE STOREY EXTENSION - Typically attached to one or more sides of the existing property, single storey extensions require building control and possibly planning permission depending on type and size. This can add significant value to your home, with extra space able to be used as a home office, bedroom, dining room or utility room.
  • WRAP AROUND HOUSE EXTENSION - As the name suggests, the wrap around extension involves attaching an L-shaped section across the entire front section of the property. Homeowners usually consider this option when they require extra living space for a bedroom, family room or dining room.
  • MULTI STOREY EXTENSION - Used to cover any side of a multi storied home, this type of extensive is designed to create extra space on both ground and upper floors. This makes it possible to create an extra dining room, bedroom or bathroom upstairs or a high glass ceilings look with open windows to outside greenery.
  • CONSERVATORY & ORANGERY - Most often installed as single storey structures, conservatories are commonly created using aluminium, timber or uPVC and designed with a low-level brick wall around the perimeter of the framework. Sunrooms & orangery extensions are similar, but feature a solid roof and walls and glazing. This is typically the more expensive option due to being stronger and offering superior energy performance. Building regulation and planning permission requirements are determined by the size and type of installation.
