Bespoke Home Extension in Calne, Wiltshire

Expand your living space in Calne

Building an extension involves much more than adding extra space. We carry out the groundworks, foundations, structural alterations, brickwork and roofing, alongside the plumbing, electrical work, plastering and flooring. From single and double storey extensions to rear, side and wraparound designs, we understand how each element needs to work together. We pay particular attention to insulation, drainage, glazing and the connection to the existing building, creating a finished space that feels like a natural part of your home.

Frequently asked questions

How much will my house extension cost, and what should the quote include?

The cost depends on more than the size of the extension. Ground conditions, access, structural alterations, drainage and your choice of finishes can all affect the budget. Check whether your quote includes glazing, electrics, heating, plastering and decoration, alongside the main building work. It should also clearly identify VAT, exclusions and any allowances for items you have yet to choose. Agreeing the scope before work starts makes quotes easier to compare and helps reduce unexpected costs.

Do I need planning permission for a house extension?

Some house extensions can be built under permitted development rights, provided they meet specific limits and conditions. Others require a planning application, depending on the design, location and property’s planning history. Certain larger rear extensions require prior approval even under permitted development. Building regulations approval is a separate requirement and is normally needed for a house extension. Confirm which approvals apply to your property before starting work.

How long does a house extension take from planning to completion?

The building work is only part of the timetable. You also need to allow time for surveys, drawings, structural design, any necessary approvals and ordering materials. Once construction begins, the programme depends on the extension’s size and complexity, site conditions and how much of the existing house needs altering. Ask for a schedule that separates preparation from construction and explains when key rooms will be affected. Choosing kitchens, windows and finishes early helps avoid delays.

Can I live at home while my extension is being built?

Often, yes, particularly if the new structure can be built before opening it into the existing house. The main consideration is whether you can retain safe access, a usable bathroom and somewhere to prepare food. Expect noise, dust and some interruptions to services. Structural openings and kitchen alterations can be especially disruptive, so a short period away may be sensible. Discuss these stages before work starts so you can plan around family life and working from home.
