Extensions

Planning Permission: Did you know that many home extensions in the UK can be built under Permitted Development rights? This means you may not need full planning permission for certain types of extensions, such as single-storey extensions up to 8 metres deep for detached houses or 6 metres for semi-detached homes?

Increased Property Value: Home extensions can significantly increase your property value. In fact, a well-designed extension can add up to 20% to your home’s market value, making it a smart investment for homeowners in the UK.

Popular Types of Extensions: Did you know that the most popular types of home extensions in the UK include kitchen extensions, loft conversions, and garden rooms? These extensions not only enhance living space but also improve functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Eco-Friendly Options: Many homeowners are opting for sustainable home extension solutions. Did you know you can incorporate eco-friendly features such as green roofs, solar panels, and energy-efficient windows into your extension project to reduce your carbon footprint?

Impact on Neighbours: Home extensions can affect your neighbours’ light and privacy. Did you know that you should consider their views during the design process? Communicating with your neighbours and adhering to the “30-degree rule” can help ensure your extension is accepted without disputes?

Design Flexibility: Did you know that home extensions can be designed to match the existing architecture of your home or to create a striking modern contrast? This design flexibility allows homeowners to enhance their property’s aesthetics while meeting their functional needs.

Building Regulations: Home extensions in the UK must comply with building regulations, ensuring safety and structural integrity. Did you know that your project will need to be inspected at various stages to confirm compliance?

Financing Options: Did you know that many homeowners in the UK finance their home extension projects through personal loans, remortgaging, or government grants for energy-efficient improvements? Exploring these options can make your extension more affordable.
