Step 1
Let’s Talk About Your Ideas
Every successful project starts with a conversation.
We’ll visit your home, listen to your ideas, discuss your goals and understand how you want to use your new space.
Whether you’re extending for a larger kitchen, extra bedrooms, a home office or open-plan living, we’ll provide honest advice on what’s achievable and help shape the best solution for your home and budget.
Step 2
Site Survey & Feasibility
Before spending money on drawings or applications, we’ll assess:
- Existing property
- Access
- Ground conditions
- Drainage
- Structural considerations
- Planning constraints
This early advice can save thousands by identifying potential issues before work begins.
Step 3
Design & Budget Planning
Once you’re happy with the concept, your architect or designer prepares detailed drawings.
Already have plans? Great.
Need an architect? We can recommend trusted professionals we’ve worked with for years.
At this stage we’ll also provide realistic budget guidance, helping you understand likely construction costs before moving forward.
No hidden surprises.
Step 4
Planning Permission
Many extensions fall under Permitted Development, while others require planning approval.
Don’t worry, we’ll explain exactly what’s needed and work alongside your architect throughout the process.
We regularly assist homeowners with:
- Rear Extensions
- Side Extensions
- Double Storey Extensions
- Loft Conversions
- Annexes
- Complete Renovations
Step 5
Building Regulations
Building Regulations ensure your home is safe, energy efficient and built to modern standards.
We coordinate with Building Control throughout the build, arranging inspections and ensuring every stage is signed off correctly.
This includes:
Foundations
Drainage
Structural Steel
Insulation
Roofing
Fire Safety
Electrical & Plumbing
Ventilation
Energy Efficiency
Step 6
Detailed Fixed Quotation
Once drawings and structural information are complete, we’ll prepare a comprehensive quotation.
You’ll know exactly what’s included.
No vague estimates.
No hidden extras.
Just clear pricing and complete transparency.
Step 7
Construction Begins
This is where your vision becomes reality.
Our experienced team carefully manages every stage of construction, including:
- Site setup
- Foundations
- Drainage
- Brickwork
- Structural steelwork
- Roof construction
- Windows & doors
- First fix electrics & plumbing
- Plastering

Throughout the project you’ll receive regular updates so you’re always informed.
Step 8

We’ll also provide all relevant certification including:
- Building Control Completion Certificate
