Adding Value to Your Home
An extension or conversion is a lot cheaper than moving these days and adds significant value to your home. That value varies on the work done of course but we can help find out an average increase according to your locality.
Find More Space
We will find the maximum space for your needs. You may need a larger living room, kitchen or bedroom; an extra room for the kids to play or relax in, a study, utility room, home gym, bathroom, toilet or even an en-suite.
Can I draw my own plans for an Extension?
Yes…but…with something as valuable as a new extension and the potential value that will be added to your home, it could be costly and time consuming to produce your own drawings.
How long does it take to get planning permission for a Single Story Extension?
Planning departments are meant to make a decision within eight weeks. If it is a straightforward extension, for example, then eight weeks is a good guide. Planning officers will advertise the application; consult neighbours and perhaps other agencies if necessary.
What if my Planning Permission is refused?
Around three quarters of planning applications are approved first time in England. Having proper and detailed drawings for your extension or conversion will increase your chances of success and therefore save you money and time.
Please give us a call if you have any questions.
