Questions
How long does an extension take?
Most single level extensions run twelve to twenty weeks on site once approvals are in place.
Do you work with my architect?
Yes. We can price from existing drawings or bring in our own designer.
Can we live at home during the build?
Often, yes. We stage the work so kitchens and bathrooms are out of action for as short a time as possible.
