Extensions
One of the most environmentally friendly and cost effective projects you can carry out is extending.
Rather than knocking down and rebuilding we can save the embodied carbon already ‘spent’ in your home and add the space you need in the most efficient manor possible.
Send through your existing plans
Don’t worry if your existing plans call for a traditional foundation and brick & block. We can convert any design into a high performing yet low carbon one.
Tell us what else you would like doing
An extension is rarely a project on its own. When we extend we typically replace a kitchen, add a utility or extra bathroom not to mention works to the garden with decking, pergolas and outdoor kitchens.
Let us deal with the rest.
Like our new builds extensions are charged at a flat £2,000 per m2 fee. We can’t tell you how much the refit element will cost but a sensible amount to budget for would be £500 per m2.
Our current extension project
All wood fibre insulation inside and out
8m steel beam installed to completely open existing building
Here is the flex woodfibre between studs with rigid overlapping to remove thermal bridging
Our roof build up is incredibly important to avoid overheating in the summer time. We install 200mm of flex wood fibre between rafters and an addiitonal 100mm on top.
Our weatherproof floor deck installed
Our suspended timber floor sitting on screw piles. These piles enabled us to build over a protected sewer.
