Six ways to transform your home
Every house has untapped space. The question is which kind suits yours, your budget and your street.
Single storey extensions
The classic rear or side extension. The biggest impact per pound you can make on a family home.
Double storey extensions
Space upstairs and down for the price of one roof. The best value per square metre.
Wrap-around extensions
Rear and side combined. The whole ground floor, reimagined around how you actually live.
Kitchen extensions
The open-plan kitchen diner is the most requested project in Nottingham, and for good reason.
Loft conversions
A whole new bedroom hiding above your ceiling, without giving up a metre of garden.
Garage conversions
The most affordable extra room in the business. Most take under six weeks.

A tidy site, a clear timeline, and one point of contact until the room is decorated and done.
What will it cost? Straight answers.
Extension pricing is where most websites go coy. We publish real Nottingham numbers: a straightforward 4m rear extension lands between £36,000 and £52,000 all in, and our cost guide breaks down every project type honestly, including the costs people forget.
Proudly local
We work across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire: West Bridgford, Beeston, Arnold, Hucknall, Carlton, Mapperley, Gedling, Sherwood, Wollaton and everywhere in between. If you are within about 15 miles of the city centre, we can help.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need planning permission for an extension in Nottingham?
Often not. Many single storey rear extensions fall under permitted development rights, meaning no planning application is needed provided you stay within set limits. Double storey extensions, side extensions on corner plots, and homes in conservation areas usually do need permission. We confirm which route applies before any drawings are done.
How long does a house extension take?
A typical single storey extension takes 10 to 14 weeks on site. Add 8 to 12 weeks beforehand for design and planning if a full application is needed. Double storey projects usually run 14 to 20 weeks on site.
How much does an extension cost in Nottingham?
Most single storey extensions in Nottingham come in between £36,000 and £60,000 depending on size and specification. See the full cost guide for detailed breakdowns.
