Building the most exquisite house extensions in London requires two fundamental : a client with a dream and the right team of architects, builders, and interior designers to make that dream a marble-edged, fabric-matched, open-plan, high-tech, bi-fold lit reality. Proficiency Design and Build has just such a team, so what are your property extension dreams?
Don’t let your home restrict your life. Extend your home to suit your lifestyle.
Don’t move out, move outwards. If you have outgrown your home then extend. Today it’s far easier than ever before to build the stylish kitchen extension, fully equipped home gym, orangery relaxation room, or open-plan entertaining space for family meals and parties with friends without limits. Combine this with a refurbishment of the rest of your home and you could live somewhere completely new without having to move.
Our on-site assessment is a thorough review of your house extension aspirations, the structural characteristics of your home, and the feasibility of your plans.
Not all extensions require planning permission, but all extension builders in London need to be aware of the possibility of local authority consent being required and the best way to gain approval for you.
One of our senior consultants will be allocated to you as your dedicated project manager, your point of contact throughout the build, and the individual responsible for coordinating all aspects of your project.
If your extension is to be built anywhere near your neighbour’s boundary, it may well be worth asking our team whether you’ll need a party wall agreement. If you do, we can help you through this process.
From your completion certificate from the local authority’s building control officer to the manufacturer’s documents for all the equipment we install for you, once your build is complete, we will provide you with a file containing all your documentation.
Traditionally the most popular extension, though it doesn’t need to be traditional in design. A single-storey rear extension can create a new room or extend an existing one.
Why just expand downstairs? With a double-storey extension, you can add space to bedrooms, create a fabulous new master, an en suite or a dressing room.
As the name suggests, this is an extension that wraps around two sides of your property: rear and side, to create an L-shaped extension for even more space.
A side return utilises space between your rear rooms and your boundary fence to extend a lounge or kitchen/dining room. Often a smaller but cost-effective option.
Some extension builders just build, others use their decades of experience building property extensions in London and their depth of knowledge in property markets, planning authorities, challenges and solutions, materials, design ideas, technologies, and trends to guide you from start to finish on your project. So, whether your property is in South or North London, whether you have grand plans like a new home construction or more modest extension aspirations, our team will go on your house extension journey with you, from end to end.
Relatively speaking, side return house extensions are less expensive than single-storey ones, which are less expensive than a wraparound or double-storey extensions. Beyond that, the cost of your extension will be governed by your tastes, your property, your planning authority, and the scale of your dream home. What you can be assured of is the care we take with your budget. From the purchase of materials and the hours we work to the plans we draw up for you and the way we manage our projects, we always look for value adds and cost savings. The ability to do more with less means our home extensions are that much more spectacular once completed and our clients are that much more satisfied with our work.
