Often you will have a firm idea about the extension you want but depending on the space you have available and budget you may be undecided. As an extension if a significant expense it is best to look at all possible options so that you don't change your mind at a later stage in the building aspect of your extension as this will add a disproportionate amount to your total expenditure.

You will have your own unique and specific requirements. We offer a wide range of extension types to suit every lifestyle and budget.

Single-Storey Extensions

A single-storey extension is a popular way to add space without dramatically altering your home's structure. Options include:

• Rear Extensions: Ideal for expanding kitchens, dining areas, or creating open-plan living spaces.
• Side Extensions: Often used to create utility rooms, extra bathrooms, or larger kitchens.
• Wrap-Around Extensions: Combine rear and side extensions to completely transform your ground floor layout.

Double-Storey Extensions

A double-storey extension doubles the space gained and is cost-effective per square metre compared to a single-storey build. Double-storey extensions require careful planning regarding structure, privacy, and neighbour consultations. Options include:

• Adding multiple bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs
• Enlarging ground-floor living space while adding upper-level rooms
• Creating master suites with en-suites and dressing rooms
  

Kitchen Extensions

The kitchen is the heart of the home, and a bespoke kitchen extension can dramatically improve functionality and family life. Options include:

• Open-plan kitchen-dining-living rooms
• Kitchen islands and breakfast bars
• Skylights, lantern roofs, or bi-fold doors for natural light

Conservatory Extensions

Conservatories offer a beautiful bridge between home and garden. Options include:

• Victorian and Edwardian styles for classic charm
• Lean-to conservatories for a modern, minimalist look

Before deciding on the type of extension, consider:

• Budget: Different extension types and materials vary greatly in cost.
• Purpose: What function will the new space serve now and in the future?
• Property Style: The extension should complement your home's existing character.
• Planning Restrictions: Conservation areas or previous extensions may limit your options.
• Neighbours: Impact on their light, privacy, and space must be considered under planning rules.
• Access: Think about how construction traffic and materials will access your site.

A thorough consultation with us will enable us to ensure all these factors are thoughtfully addressed before you make any decisions.
