How much will my home extension, loft conversion or alteration cost ?

Builders will, almost always, require a set of building plans or architectural designs of your home extension, loft conversion or home alteration before they are able to provide quotations. So to get the overall costs of the project, do you need the architectural designs and building plans to be completed ?

Not quite. But how do you start the process, without committing to the initial costs of having the building plans or architectural design drawings being completed for your home extension, loft conversion or home alteration ?

This is where we are able to assist. By providing guidance and drawing upon our expertise and experience, we can help to explain everything. Also, more importantly, we provide build cost estimates for your potential home extension, loft conversion or home alteration. 

Although only estimates, this provides you with the potential costs of the build as well as the various other costs that a home extension, loft conversion or home alteration would entail. 

Some of these other costs for your home extension, loft conversion or home alteration are for the architectural design or building plans to be produced (our principle service), planning application fees to your local authority, building regulations fees to your local authority, structural engineering (if required, a service we also provide) and any other costs that may be applicable to your potential project.
