If you are about to build a house extension for your family you should really take your time and plan it, consult builders and architects late changes to the specification can be very costly, as some of the work already done may have to be destroyed and rebuilt again. Once you have your vision on paper (draft plans), now is the time to call builders for a quote, draw up the architectural plans.

House extension project is a major work. Part of your home will be turned into a building site – although we do all we can to minimize the inconvenience, some dirt, dust and noise are inevitable. Also, you may consider having at least the ground floor renovated – extra work would not be charged as much as if you decide to do it separately, later.

Adding an extension not only increases the floor area – you have the opportunity to reconfigure the layout of the ground floor – utilize the already available space in the best way: remove unnecessary partitions, create open plan large living space with a diner / kitchen area and bring more light to the ground floor. All this will simply give you more enjoyable time at home.
