2. Do I need planning permission for a house extension or garage conversion?
In some cases, house extensions and conversions require planning permission. The need for approval depends on the scope of the project and local regulations. As your trusted domestic builders, we will guide you through the planning process and ensure that all necessary permissions are obtained.
3. What are structural alterations, and when are they necessary?
Structural alterations refer to changes made to the main framework of your property, such as removing load-bearing walls, adding new beams, or altering the foundations. These alterations may be necessary when expanding your home through a house extension or wraparound extension, or when making significant layout changes to improve space and functionality. Our building contractors are experienced in safely managing these alterations to ensure your home remains structurally sound.

From the layout to the finishes, our new build contractors tailor everything to meet your specific needs and preferences. This custom approach ensures that your home not only reflects your style but also functions perfectly for your lifestyle. Whether you’re building a new home or altering the layout of an existing property, bespoke construction services from our local builders offer ultimate home customisation.
5. How long will my house extension or garage conversion take?
Depending on the project’s size and complexity, the estimated timeline for a house extension or garage conversion can vary. Generally, a conversion takes a few weeks, while larger property extensions may take several months.
