House Extension Builders in Somerset

Not always. Many smaller home extensions in Somerset fall under Permitted Development, meaning you don’t need full planning permission as long as you stay within certain limits. 

However, if your home is a listed building or in a conservation area, the rules are stricter. During our initial consultation, we can help you understand what’s likely to be required.

Every project is unique, but most single-storey house extensions take between 10 and 16 weeks to reach completion. Larger two-storey projects or complex wrap-around extensions can take longer.

We provide a realistic timeline at the start of your project so you know exactly what to expect.

Costs can vary depending on the size, the materials used, and the complexity of the groundworks. We always provide detailed, itemised quotes rather than vague estimates. This ensures you can plan your budget with confidence, knowing there are no hidden surprises.

In most cases, yes – significantly. Adding a high-quality home extension to your Somerset home that increases your bedroom count or creates a modern, open-plan kitchen is one of the most reliable ways to boost your property’s market value. 
We focus on ensuring the new build integrates perfectly with the original structure, which is key to maximising that return on investment.

While we build year-round, many homeowners prefer to break ground in the spring or summer to take advantage of better weather for the initial groundworks and structural phases. 

However, starting in the autumn can often mean your new space is ready and fully decorated just in time for the following spring. We can manage the project effectively regardless of the season.
