Types of House Extension

Our design consultant and surveyor will talk to you about the best way to extend your home. They consider structural points, such as groundwork, drainage, electrics, plumbing and building regulations. All our extensions are bespoke, so if you can imagine it, we can create it.

Your Questions Answered by us

How big can an extension be without planning permission?

As of 2019, an extension on a detached house can project up to eight metres from your home. For a semi-detached or detached house, it’s up to six metres. When building an extension, it should not take up more than half of your land or be taller than your current roof. Our surveyor will confirm if the project needs planning permission, but if it does, we take care of it all for you.

How much does a home extension add to house value?

A home extension is one of the best ways to increase the value of your home. How much value it could add depends on size, position and its use. A single-storey extension is a popular way to increase the size of a kitchen or add a reception room. It can add 5-8% to the value of your home.

How long does a house extension take?

The time it takes to finish a home extension depends on the design and materials you choose. For a regular one-story extension, it can take three to four months. If you need planning permission, it may take longer. Our design team will discuss the estimated time with you before starting.

How do you extend a kitchen?

Depending on your home and the position of your kitchen there are lots of ways to extend. Victorian terraces often have a narrow galley kitchen at the back with a small courtyard next to it. Many people choose to extend their terraced kitchen by adding a side extension or a wraparound extension. To expand your kitchen in a 1930s semi-detached house, add a single-storey extension with large patio doors at the back.

Do I need an architect for a home extension?

You don't have to hire an architect to build a home extension, but if it’s a big project this can help. Architects provide plans and guidance for homeowners and the builder you hire. Some building firms offer this too, but for more complex builds, it's a good idea to find an architect.
