In detail

What each job covers

Extensions

Planning and design, foundations, structural work, walls, roof, windows, doors, electrics, plumbing, plastering, flooring and finishing throughout.

When you need it. When you need more living space but don't want to move house or need extra rooms for growing families.

Before you get in touch. Sketch measurements of the space, check planning permission needs, and note any access restrictions around your property.

Loft Conversions

Structural reinforcement, insulation, velux windows or dormers, electrical rewiring, plumbing if needed, flooring and plastering to finished room.

When you need it. When children need their own rooms, you want a home office or need extra bedroom space without moving.

Before you get in touch. Measure your loft height and access point, photograph beam positions and check if your roof can take the weight.

Renovations

Gutting rooms back to structure, installing new services, adding walls or removing them, new kitchens, bathrooms, flooring and decoration.

When you need it. When kitchens and bathrooms are dated, layouts don't work or the property needs updating to modern standards.

Before you get in touch. Photograph problem areas, list what you want changed, get an idea of your budget and discuss timescale expectations.

Brickwork

Removing old mortar, cleaning joints, applying new mortar, repairing damaged bricks, replacing damaged sections and matching existing finishes.

When you need it. When mortar is crumbling, bricks are loose, damp is entering or walls look weathered and unstable.

When you need it. Before any new build or major extension starts and when drainage or foundations need replacing or upgrading.

Good to know

Common questions

General guidance about builders in the UK, not specific to any one business.

Do I need planning permission for an extension in Does?

Most single-storey rear extensions under 4 metres and two-storey extensions under 3 metres may not need permission under permitted development rules. Loft conversions rarely need it. Always check local authority guidance or submit an application if unsure.

How long does a loft conversion typically take?

Basic conversions usually take 8–12 weeks depending on complexity and access. Those requiring new stairs, bathrooms or structural work take longer. Weather and unforeseen problems can extend timescales.

What happens if groundworks are done badly?

Poor foundations cause settling and cracking. Incorrect drainage leads to standing water and subsidence. Bad ground preparation means floors heave and structures become unstable. This is why correct groundworks are essential before building starts.

Can you renovate a kitchen and bathroom at the same time?

Yes, and it often makes sense to run both projects together to minimise disruption, share scaffolding costs and reduce the time your home is inaccessible. Coordinate services like plumbing and electrics efficiently.

What should be checked before starting a new build?

Verify planning permission, building regulations approval and insurance are in place. Check utilities access, ground conditions and weather forecasts. Ensure site access is clear for vehicles, machinery and material deliveries throughout.
