Single-Storey Extension

A single-storey rear extension offers additional light-filled living space ideal for kitchens, lounges, or home offices. Whether you’re considering a single-floor extension or a one-storey extension, we take care of construction drawings, liaise with a structural engineer, and secure building control approval.

We also advise on single-storey side extension plans and provide detailed estimates for the cost of single-storey extensions in Buckhurst Hill.

Double-Story Extension

Maximise your footprint with a double-storey extension. From evaluating the double-storey extension price to handling the two-floor extension cost planning, we manage the full process. This includes preparing for party wall agreements and conducting precise structural calculations via our experienced structural engineer.

Our work includes projects such as double-storey extensions with lofts, handled by seasoned double-storey extension builders in Essex.

Rear House Extension

A rear house extension is ideal for expanding kitchen and dining areas. From modern kitchen extension layouts to accurate rear extension cost breakdowns, we bring your vision to life.

We also help you plan with rear kitchen extension ideas and connect you with local contractors for rear kitchen extensions.

Buckhurst House Extensions – From Planning to Completion

Initial Phase: Feasibility and Site Survey

Your project starts with a detailed site survey led by our experienced team, including a qualified planning consultant and an RIBA architect. We assess your property’s layout, structural possibilities, and planning constraints. This step lays the foundation for a seamless design and planning process.

Design Phase: Architectural Drawings and Planning Preparation

Once feasibility is confirmed, our extension architect creates comprehensive architectural drawings and planning drawings tailored to your vision. We define the extension footprint and prepare plans that balance style, practicality, and compliance.

Permission Phase: Navigating Regulations and Legal Compliance

In this phase, we handle your application for planning permission where required. We ensure that your extension adheres to all relevant building regulations and help facilitate party wall agreements if neighbouring properties are involved.

Engineering Phase: Structural Calculations and Approval

Our in-house structural engineer conducts all necessary structural calculations to guarantee stability and safety. Where applicable, we manage the build-over agreement process with water authorities to ensure your extension won’t interfere with underground assets.

Construction Phase: Build Execution and Control Sign-Off

With approvals in place, construction begins. Our design and build team uses the final construction drawings to execute the build. We coordinate inspections and secure building control approval in line with local authority planning protocols, ensuring everything is signed off and ready for you to enjoy.

What Buckhurst Hill Homeowners Are Asking About House Extensions

How do I know if my Buckhurst Hill property is suitable for an extension?
Before any design begins, we carry out a full feasibility study and planning assessment. Factors like conservation area status, structural layout, and your title deed restrictions play a key role.
Yes, we offer full planning resubmission support. If your extension plan has been rejected by Epping Forest District Council, we adjust drawings, provide impact statements, and resubmit for review.
A wrap-around combines rear and side extensions into one L-shaped layout, while a side return utilises narrow side space. Our architect can assess which style best suits your Buckhurst Hill property footprint.
Our phased construction method minimises disruption. We use dust screens, maintain site safety, and keep your utilities active where possible, ideal for staying home during the build.
If your foundation layout crosses or comes near public drains, a build-over agreement is required. We coordinate with Thames Water on your behalf to avoid delays.
We can usually begin the site survey within 7–10 days. Once planning prep is underway, most Buckhurst Hill builds can break ground in under 8 weeks, pending approvals.
