Extensions & Renovations
Creating Your Dream Home
A home extension or extensive renovation can be daunting. While they may be necessary to create a dream home, significant confidence is required to fulfil a project.
Handing over an extension or renovation project to multiple contractors, without adequate project management, increases the chances that steps are missed, or shortcuts are taken. We address this by providing a complete service immediately from the outset. This begins with initial drawing plans and planning permission to the final building sign-off before moving in.
Each step is carefully monitored to ensure that the project remains on budget, on time and to the quality specifications you expect for your dream home.
Our Extensions & Renovations Process
1
Your Dream Home
Starting with a pool of your dream ideas, we can provide some initial proposed plans to use for planning permission applications.
2
Drawings & Permission
Once we have planning permission, we can provide full spec drawings, including a full detailed breakdown quote.
3
Scheduling & Preparation
After our quote has been accepted, we will require a deposit to secure services, draw up contracts, schedule of works and staged payment plans.
4
Project Build & Management
Initial enabling works/rip-outs begin, followed by works specified in the approved drawings. Management of all trades is continued until completion.
A Future Investment
A home extension or renovation can be one of the wisest decisions regarding your home. Not only does it improve your home, enabling you to enjoy your time spent there more, but it also can drastically increase the value of the property should you wish to sell in the future.
Similarly, an extension or renovation is often more feasible than moving house, especially if you need the extra space due to circumstances such as requiring more room for a new family member, or if you suddenly desire a larger house for hobbies or a new business venture.
Project Spotlight
Extensions and Renovations often require substantial up-front planning. This project was no different, as we were working with a client to install a two story extension of a full timber frame.
The biggest requirement for this project was that this extension needed to look as though it were part of the original house.

We contacted Ryan for a review of warping doors on cupboards that were just built by another carpenter. We had been struggling for over a year to get the job corrected but no joy. Ryan came by and looked at the job and was able to immediately see the errors and offered advice and suggestions ...

Can you quote for me without architect drawings?
We will only be able to provide loose estimates without full architectural spec drawings as we cannot truly price without knowing material specs and dimensions.
If you have an idea of the size and brief of the extension or if you have pre-planning proposed plans we can provide parameter estimates but these may include a consultation fee.
Can you project manage for us?
We can project manage and supply all trades and materials from initial enquiry until handover, we usually recommend this service as it enables the project to run seamlessly and not only deliver on time but also provides the excellent finish that we pride ourselves on.
