Why Consider Building an Extension?

A home extension is one of the best ways to create more living space without moving house. With rising property prices in London, extending your current home is often more cost-effective than buying new.

Whether you’re after a rear extension or a side return, we tailor the design and build to your needs.

Benefits of a Building Extension:

  • Gain more living space without the hassle of relocating
  • Boost your property’s market value
  • Design your dream layout, your way
  • Avoid stamp duty and moving costs

Ideal for growing families or remote working

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Ask question

The cost of building an extension in London can vary significantly depending on several factors such as - 

  • The size of the extension, 
  • Materials used, 
  • The complexity of the build, 
  • And your borough’s planning requirements.

On average:

  • Single-storey extensions start from £1,800 to £2,500+ per square metre
  • Double-storey extensions cost between £2,000 to £3,000+ per square metre
  • Modular building extensions can be more affordable, starting around £1,200 per square metre

Additional costs may include - 

  • Architectural drawings, 
  • Planning permission fees, 
  • Party wall agreements, 
  • And VAT. 

At Rose Construction, we provide a clear and itemised quote. 

Not always. Some house extensions fall under Permitted Development Rights. This allows you to build without formal planning permission — provided your extension meets specific size and placement criteria.

However, if you:

  • Live in a conservation area or a listed building
  • Want to build a double-storey extension
  • Plan to extend beyond certain height or depth limits

...then planning permission will likely be required.

We handle the whole process for you, including - 

  • preparing documents, 
  • submitting the application, 
  • and liaising with your local planning department.

The timeline for building an extension depends on the type and scale of your project.

Typical durations:

  • Small single-storey extension: 8–10 weeks
  • Larger or double-storey extension: 12–16 weeks
  • Quick build modular extensions: As little as 4–6 weeks

This includes everything from demolition and groundwork to finishes and final inspections. Our team provides a clear project timeline and updates you regularly throughout the build. 

The cheapest way to build an extension typically includes:

  • Opting for modular or prefab designs
  • Using a simple rectangular footprint
  • Keeping the design minimal and avoiding bespoke features
  • Choosing affordable yet durable materials
  • Staying within Permitted Development guidelines to avoid costly planning fees

At Rose Construction, we can advise you on budget-friendly solutions.

Absolutely. A well-designed extension can increase your home’s value by 10–20%, or more in some areas of London. Popular extensions like:

  • Kitchen/diner open-plan spaces
  • Extra bedrooms
  • Home offices
  • Utility rooms or second bathrooms

…can greatly increase appeal for future buyers.

We ensure that our designs are functional and add long-term resale value to your property.
