“It has been great to work with Shabbir Chandabhai at Burhani Design. He has designed and executed on two buildings we own in Chicago, coming up with a design that enhanced the rental units in the properties.

Jason Meyering Architecture
House Extension Professionals in Blue Island, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 August 2018
“I have worked with Jason for the past 10 years on a wide variety of projects and he is an incredible architect! He has the perfect balance of design ingenuity and technical savvy that many design professionals lack. His strengths lie in his ability to creatively solve complex design issues and develop clever solutions that are beautiful and timeless. Beyond that, Jason is the hardest working architect I have ever known. He will work night and day to achieve the optimal design solution aesthetically, while adhering to time frame, build-ability and budget. Don't think twice and hire Jason.”
Tom Bassett-Dilley Architect, Ltd.
House Extension Professionals in Blue Island, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 December 2015
“We live in a 1918 Oak Park bungalow, complete with art glass windows and loads of woodwork throughout. Our kitchen was a late 80s powder blue counters and laminate cabinets--did not match our home or our needs for a big family. Tom Bassett-Dilley and his team completely rethought our space and designed a functional and beautiful space that matches the rest of our home. We can now entertain family and friends in a spacious, sophisticated kitchen. The mud room and sun room were also part of this project--reclaiming space so every inch our our house is useable, efficient and stunning!”

Arlene Awarda Architect
House Extension Professionals in Blue Island, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 March 2012
“We have a small house in Riverside. It is about 1,000 sf. It is a split level modern house built in the 1950's. We wanted an open plan concept with a cathedral ceiling. We removed wall to new ceiling, creating an upstairs loft. The project was completed in 2001.We have lived in it for 11 years! We love the plan and the cathedral ceiling 16' high. Our room is now open 20'x24', with new skylights above the living room. Arlene was a terrific help. We got our plans on time during the design phase, and got our permits without any new work or any changes to our design. We have enjoyed our redesigned home for the past 11 years and would definitely recommend Arlene to our friends! ”
Searl Lamaster Howe Architects
House Extension Professionals in Blue Island, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 October 2015
“Searl Lamaster Howe is a firm that genuinely listens to the client. The project was a true collaboration, and the results astonishing. The architects are responsive, responsible and super-creative. They took a rundown country house and, essentially maintaining the footprint of the original home, turned it into something splendid at reasonable cost. SLH's attention to detail (e.g. custom cabinetry), use of ecologically sensitive materials, and thoughtful consideration of ongoing operating costs (e.g. geothermal heat and A/C) have contributed to a resounding success. The client is ecstatic, and the project has been recognized by numerous awards from the American Institute of Architects and others, as well as publicity in national newspapers and journals. The architects are a pleasure to work with. Recommended without reservation. Photos are on the houzz.com website.”

Architect or Architectural Designer FAQs
A house extension is a construction process that involves expanding the footprint of your existing home. This could be extending outwards, either to the side or rear of the house, or upwards by adding another storey. House extensions provide extra living space and can significantly increase the value of your property.

House extensions can be categorised based on direction, structure and function. The main types include rear extensions, side return extensions, wrap-around extensions, and double or single-storey extensions. More specific ones could be kitchen extensions, loft conversions, basement conversions, garage conversions or conservatories. Select the type that best suits your property and meets your space needs, if you are unsure, speaking with a local home extension builder in Blue Island.

Generally, house extensions are worth the investment. They provide additional living space and can dramatically increase the resale value of your home, often covering the initial investment cost. However, plan carefully and choose a reputable house extension builder to ensure a high-quality build that will add value to your property.

The cost of a house extension can vary significantly based on several factors, such as the size, complexity of the design, quality of materials used, and geographical location. However, as a rough estimate, a single-storey extension can range from £1,000 to £2,000 per square metre, whereas a two-storey extension can start at around £1,500 per square metre.

Planning a house extension involves several stages, including idea generation, design, planning permission, and construction. Consult with a house extension architect to create a design based on your needs and budget. Ensure to check with your local council about planning permissions. Finally, choose a reputable house extension builder to bring your vision to life.
