Extensions in Durham

More room. One firm, start to finish.

Outgrown your home but love where you live? An extension adds the space, value and function you need without the cost and upheaval of moving. We design and build extensions right across Durham, on everything from the Victorian terraces to the newer estates around Newton Hall and Belmont.

We run the whole job: design, planning, structural work, every trade and the finishes. One contractor, one programme, one fixed price, so you're not coordinating an architect, a builder, a sparky and a plumber who've never met.

A named Contracts Manager keeps it on track with daily site visits, and you get a written programme before a brick is laid.

  • Design and planning handled in-house
  • Structure, electrics, plumbing and finishes by our own trades
  • Named Contracts Manager, daily site visits
  • Fixed written quote before work starts

Questions we get asked

Extensions in Durham. Straight answers.

How much does an extension cost in Durham?

It depends on size, specification and ground conditions, so we don't guess. We visit your Durham home, measure up, and come back with a fixed written quote in plain English. The free site visit carries no obligation.

Do I need planning permission for an extension in Durham?

Not always. Many single-storey extensions fall under permitted development, but conservation areas and listed buildings around the city have tighter rules. We assess this at the site visit and handle any application to Durham County Council.

How long does an extension take to build?

A typical single-storey extension runs eight to twelve weeks on site depending on size and spec. You get a written programme before we lay a brick.

Will I be able to stay in the house during the work?

Usually yes. We phase the work to keep your home liveable, and a clean, tidy site is part of how we work.

Do you handle the design, planning and building regs?

Yes, all of it: design, structural calculations, planning where needed, building control sign-off and completion certificates, under one contract.

Who manages the job day to day?

A named Contracts Manager from day one, on site daily, reachable throughout. One person accountable from first visit to handover.

Do you use subcontractors?

No. Every trade on your Durham extension is on our own books, which is why one firm stays accountable for the whole job.
