Good to know

Common questions

General guidance about builders in the UK, not specific to any one business.

Do I need planning permission for an extension?

Most extensions under certain size limits fall under permitted development. Single-storey extensions and loft conversions often do. Larger works, listed buildings and conservation areas usually need permission. A local planning authority search confirms requirements.

What is building regulations approval?

Building Regulations are safety and construction standards enforced by local authorities. All structural work, electrics, plumbing and heating must comply. Work is inspected at foundation, mid-stage and completion. Completion certificates prove compliance and are needed for future sales.

How long does a typical extension take?

Single-storey extensions usually take 8–12 weeks from start to finish. Larger or more complex projects take longer. Weather, complexity and delays to materials affect timescales. Groundworks and foundations cannot be rushed to avoid structural problems later.

What should I check before buying a property with extension work?

Check that building regulations completion certificates exist for any extension, conversion or major work. Ask for planning permission documents. Get a surveyor to check foundations, damp-proof courses and whether work meets current standards.

What makes a loft conversion different from just adding storage?

A loft conversion creates permanent habitable rooms with proper headroom, windows, insulation, electrics and heating. Storage lofts lack these. Conversions need structural calculations to ensure the roof can support a floor and occupants safely.

Why is groundwork important for new builds?

Poor groundwork causes subsidence, damp and structural failure years later. Foundations must reach stable ground at the correct depth. Drainage must work properly. Soil surveys and proper compaction prevent expensive problems once the building is complete and occupied.
