Ground level extension

Stealing some outdoor space for a ground-level or single-storey extension is often the simplest and most cost-effective way to increase the size of your home.

For natural, functional flow, make sure any new living areas are accessible from the main entrance or hallway, and bedrooms are positioned near a bathroom.

Add a second storey

A second storey is a fantastic way to expand your home without sacrificing garden space. While it requires structural work to support the additional weight, you’ll maximise your property’s footprint, add significant value and you might even end up with an amazing view!

For a more cost-effective approach, consider converting existing loft space into an attic room - ideal for a home office or extra bedroom.

Create a basement level

Excavating under your home to add a basement level gives you valuable square footage without losing any outdoor space. This approach offers great versatility: include internal access for seamless integration with your original home, or create a separate, self-contained unit for an older family member or rental income. Basement additions require structural support and foundation work, demanding careful planning and expert execution from your building team.
