House Extensions London

For your household, we can create a house extension that meets your precise needs while complementing your property’s overall design. You could use the extension for any purpose – for example, as a new kitchen, living room or home office.

Whether you would like a single-storey or double-storey extension, we can put it together from scratch, doing everything from drawing up the initial design to sourcing the required materials and adding any means of access – such as bi-fold doors, which are especially popular.

We enable you to choose from various materials – including real tiles, replica tiles and solid panels for roofing and uPVC, aluminium and wood for windows and doors. We can also apply for planning permission if your extension will require this.

Benefits Of Extending Your London
Home

In London, residential space is at a premium. For this reason, if you live in the bustling UK capital but now find yourself outgrowing your abode there, it would be more financially appealing for you to extend that property rather than relocate to a whole new one. An extension could also help you to enhance your home’s functionality.

For example, that extension could serve as an extra bedroom for when guests stay over, a home office if you want to work remotely without distractions, or a playroom or games room depending on whether you have little kids or... slightly bigger kids. Alternatively, in enlarging your home, you could create an “overflow” space for an existing room, like a dining room often used for parties.

Why Have A Home Extension?

We can build extensions in various styles, including contemporary as well as Elizabethan, Regency and Victorian. As a result, a home extension built by our team can provide you with increased space while still looking like a seamless part of your property.

Even if your residential property hews to more of a “period” look, we can fit your extension with roofing to visually suit. We also build our house extensions to be thermally efficient, enabling them to be comfortably used all year round.

A home extension can often be built under “permitted development” rights, which means you would not need planning permission for it. Some more ambitious extensions might need that consent – but we can apply for this on our clients’ behalf.

Home Extension FAQ’s

Often, it is necessary to notify the local planning authority (LPA) before a proposed major development, like a new building or a large alteration to an existing one, can go ahead. This is because the development could significantly affect neighbours or the surrounding environment.

However, planning permission is not required for certain minor building works where any such impact would likely be small. These projects can proceed under “permitted development” – but we can obtain planning permission for your house extension if it needs this.

The extension would need to meet a range of specific criteria. For example, you could add a rear extension without requiring planning permission if that extension does not extend more than:

  • 8m to the rear in a single-storey property
  • 3m to the rear in a double-storey property
  • 6m to the rear in a semi-detached or terraced house

There are various other instances where, if a house extension falls outside particular size parameters, you would need planning permission.

While you could understandably be reluctant to opt for two storeys due to the larger expense they would naturally incur compared to a single-storey extension, the price increase would not be significant, as most of any house extension’s cost is in its foundations. 

Consequently, double-storey extensions are actually less expensive than single-storey extensions per square metre. The former are also more spacious and more versatile. Please contact us if you remain uncertain whether one or two storeys would be more suitable for your particular extension.

This would depend on exactly what will be included in the extension. Any quote we present you with for a house extension will cover everything that, as you will have previously established with us after a consultation and site survey, will be included.

You would need to start with the free consultation, which you can book by phoning 0203 409 0115. After the consultation has taken place, you could proceed to book the free site survey through our website.

Yes, with our property refurbishment service – which, as the term implies, can be carried out in your whole property, not just one extension. Here are some tasks we could complete when refurbishing an extension:

  • Plastering a wall
  • Decorating a room
  • Replacing any damaged window units

Therefore, if you are unhappy with a house extension you already have, you might not strictly have to arrange for it to be rebuilt, a project which would inevitably take up more time and expense.
