Extending is Cheaper Than Moving

An extension or conversion is a lot cheaper than moving and adds substantial value to your home. We also aim to make the best use of all the space for your home and therefore maximise your home’s value.

Find the Most Space

You may need a larger lounge, kitchen or family space; perhaps an extra room for the kids to play or relax in, a study, utility room, bathroom, toilet etc. We will find the maximum space and make sure that there is plenty of storage.

How Long does it take to gain planning permission?

Local authorities are meant to make a decision within eight weeks. If it is a straightforward extension then eight weeks is a rough guide.

Planning officers will advertise the application; consult neighbours and perhaps other agencies if needed.

Planning permission for London Colney is usually very straight forward. We are sure you’ll have questions and we are here to help, so please give us a call, email or use our contact form. One of our experienced team will be happy to have a chat and answer your questions.
