Types of House Extensions We Offer
We deliver a wide range of bespoke extension solutions to suit different property types and budgets.
Rear Extensions
Rear extensions are one of the most popular ways to expand your home, ideal for creating open-plan kitchen and dining spaces. They maximise unused garden space and significantly improve natural light.
Side Return Extensions
Perfect for Victorian and terraced homes in London, side return extensions transform narrow, unused alleyways into functional living areas.
Wraparound Extensions
A combination of rear and side extensions, wraparound designs offer the most space and flexibility—ideal for large kitchen-diners or family rooms.
Double Storey Extensions
Double storey extensions allow you to expand both ground and first floors, adding bedrooms, bathrooms, or office space while increasing property value.
Kitchen Extensions
We design and build modern kitchen extensions that combine style, functionality, and seamless indoor-outdoor living.
