The cost of building an extension is determined by a number of factors, including size, specification, and your location. You may be planning a basement conversion, a single storey extension, a downstairs toilet extension, or an extension over your garage. Whatever you have in mind, our experts will take a detailed brief in order to provide an accurate quote for the work.
In many cases, you can extend your home under Permitted Development (PD). For example, under PD you can extend a detached property by 8m to the rear, if it’s a single-storey extension, or by 3m if it’s double. Check with your local council and your extension specialist before you get too far into the planning stages, because your project may not meet all the criteria for PD.
Most insurers won’t cover any loss or damage incurred while a property is undergoing alteration or renovation. If you’re carrying out extension works and managing the project yourself, it’s worth discussing your project with an insurance provider, before any work begins. You may need to arrange a specific extension policy to cover the new works and the existing structure. It’s also worth enquiring about a 10-year structural warranty, as this can be provided on some new extension works.

We are absolutely thrilled with our newly finished basement and cannot recommend Manny enough! From day one, they were incredibly punctual, showing up exactly when promised and keeping the project moving at an impressive pace. This project was fast and efficient without ever cutting corners, transforming our space in record time while maintaining the highest quality of work. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and daily clean-up/ respect for our home - made the entire renovation a stress-free experience—if you want a reliable contractor who delivers superior results, look no further! We highly recommend Manny - he really knows what he's doing and can provide suggestions on the go while working with your vision. We feel so relieved to have our basement done and done well functionally and aesthetically.

I was referred to this team for a custom construction project, and the experience was excellent. The quality of the build is impressive, particularly the attention to detail throughout the interior finishes. It is rare to find contractors who prioritize the final aesthetic as much as the structural integrity, but they delivered on both. The entire team was professional and maintained clear communication throughout the process. I would highly recomend their services for any high end residential work.
