Building a home extension is usually cheaper than purchasing a larger property. Moreover, it saves time finding new properties that meet all of your requirements without any guarantee of success.
There are four main types of home extensions:
Single-storey extensions are versatile additional spaces without compromising outdoor areas. They’re great when expanding kitchens or living rooms.
Double-storey extensions offer twice as much floor space as single-storey ones; providing enough room for an extra bedroom suite upstairs along with expanded living quarters downstairs.
Wrap-around extensions expand living spaces in multiple directions by building around the existing house.
Conservatories add a unique touch to your home, providing elegance, light, and versatility.
A home extension is a significant project that requires careful planning. Consider the following steps:
A design consultation will help you understand the feasibility of your project along with providing additional ideas you may not have thought about when it comes to designing your extension. A site survey allows the designers, builders, and architects to analyse key factors such as soil types, drainage, and impact on existing property.
Before construction starts, you’ll need planning permission from local authorities as well as making sure that all aspects comply with building regulations. Project Management and Scheduling Project management is essential during the construction process ensuring that everything runs smoothly, on time, and within budget.
When choosing materials for your extension, you should consider the following factors: Matching existing brickwork and roofing materials
The use of energy-efficient glass and windows
Flooring options based on the purpose or function of the space
Lighting fixtures according to usage.
