Common Questions

Quick answers to questions we hear every day.

Do I need planning permission for an extension? +
Many extensions fall under Permitted Development, meaning no planning permission is needed. We advise you at the free survey stage and handle any applications required — at no extra cost.
How long does an extension take to build? +
A single-storey extension typically takes 8–12 weeks on site. Larger double-storey projects run 14–20 weeks depending on weather and finish specification. We agree timescales before we start.
Are your prices fixed? +
Yes. We provide a fully itemised fixed-price quote before any work starts. The only time a price changes is if you instruct a variation (change of spec or scope) mid-project — and even then we get written approval first.
Are you fully insured? +
Yes — we carry £5m public liability insurance and all our operatives are covered by employer's liability. Full certificates available on request at the survey stage.
Will a loft conversion add value to my home? +
Typically 15–20% according to Nationwide and Zoopla research. The exact figure depends on your property type and location, but a quality conversion almost always adds more value than it costs.
