“Fantastic service. I had no idea how to extend my home. David help me at each stage of the process, making it really easy to do. I was even helped with guidelines about what to look for when sourcing builders- and the price of what the extension was going to cost, allowing me to compare the quotes from relevant builders. Any problems no matter how small were easily dealt with and with no fuss. Would highly recommend them.”

“John took our ideas for a new kitchen extension and developed the plans and proposal so that we gained planning permission without any issues. John also attended the parish council planning meeting to ensure there were no issues at this stage. With his help and guidance a specification was developed from which we were able to have a number of contractors bid, going on to select one to complete the build. Although we knew exactly what we wanted out of this project we initially had trouble engaging builders before we started working with John, due to the unusual construction methods being used. With John’s expertise, advice and attention to detail on-board the project was completed and we have been enjoying the kitchen extension for the last six months.”

“I had an idea in my head of the extension I wanted for my house but no idea of how to organise anything to make it happen. Ralph was recommended by a friend and gently led me through the process. Ralph organised the surveyor, made lots of constructive suggestions, produced excellent drawings and very quickly secured planning permission for me. There was little for me to do except decide what design I wanted. Ralph Kent is a brilliant architect but it is all the product ideas he comes up with and his organising skills that get the job done.”

“We have recently completed a kitchen and utility extension with the support of Laura & the Pride Road team she helped us bring our dreams and ideas to life. The workshop was incredible useful and enabled us to work through our ideas, but equally show us a few different options with five potential designs for the project. Laura helped guide us through the process from the planning application and recommending a suitable and trustworthy builder. We are delighted with the completed project, which has transformed our home and created a positive daily living space. We will definitely use Laura and Pride Road again if we have a future project, she was incredibly professional and efficient and we would therefore recommend her to family and friends.”

“‘The initial design captured the essence of what we wanted immediately and needed very few refinements. The vision our architect demonstrated in working with a very difficult, steeply sloping garden was remarkable and the end result is elegant and refined, delivering way more than we had hoped. The entire project was expertly handled and a joy to be a part of.’”

“Nabney Plans are a very easy Company to deal with. They listen to your ideas and incorporate them into some amazing drawings with some unique ideas. We required plans to renovate an old 1960s bungalow into a contemporary house. You know from the start what the price will be for their service, which is refreshing. I would highly recommend Nabney Plans if you require an honest and excellent service.”

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 Christchurch.

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.
