Follow the Build

Know what is agreed, when choices are needed and how the stages will come together.

Ways to Extend

Add Space in the Right Direction

The best route depends on your property, the available footprint, and where the new room needs to connect.

Single-Storey

Create a larger kitchen-diner, utility room, or family area through an addition arranged across one level.

Double-Storey

Gain space upstairs and downstairs where the property and proposed design make this route suitable.

Rear Extension

Extend behind the home to open up the ground floor, enlarge the kitchen, or create a more social living area.

Side Extension

Use suitable space beside the house for an additional room that connects effectively with the existing layout.

Not Sure Where to Extend?

Use the property visit to compare the available space, the room you need and how each option could connect.

Before Groundworks

Set the Build Up Properly

Size, structure, access, and early design choices all influence the price, programme, and route to construction.

What Shapes the Investment

Home extension costs reflect the floor area, number of storeys, structural requirements, and specification agreed for the build.

How the Build Sequence Works

The programme takes shape around approvals, groundwork, structural stages, trade coordination, and access to the property.

Confirm the Planning Route

The extension’s size, height, position and design can determine whether planning permission for extensions is required before work moves forward.

Extension Answers

What to Consider Before Adding Space

These answers cover the key choices that shape the extension type, layout, planning route and impact on your home.

Start with the room you need and how it should connect with the existing home. Rear extensions often suit larger kitchens or family areas, while side extensions can make use of suitable space beside the property. A double-storey addition may provide rooms on both floors where the site and proposed design allow it. The property visit helps compare these options against your layout and priorities.

The proposed floor area, number of storeys, and structural requirements all influence the quotation. Access, the chosen specification and the work needed to connect the addition with the existing house also matter. Once the property and proposed scope have been assessed, Cooksey Renovation provides a written quotation showing what is included and the expected timescales.

Planning requirements should be considered before construction dates are agreed. Whether permission is needed can depend on the extension’s size, height, position and design, along with restrictions affecting the property. Building regulations are a separate requirement, so the relevant approval routes need to be considered individually during the early planning stage.

Huge thank you to Lance and the team for their great work on our full bathroom renovation! Our old house threw up so many extra problems to work around, but the guys kept us well informed and worked hard to overcome everything They truly brought my vision of a modern meets vintage bathroom to life I'm especially obsessed with the tiling work, the detail and the effort for all those extra little touches make the room look so fab I am absolutely over the moon with how it's turned out! Thank you thank you thank you!

From initial consultation to finished job the Cooksey were brilliant. Always looking on time, worked a full day, cleaned up after themselves and made sure we were completely happy with the work. Very friendly and professional. Covered every aspect of the installation of a new bathroom from liasing with suppliers to the electrics , plastering and tiling. Highly recommended

We cannot recommend Lance and the team enough. From beginning to end him and the team were professional, knowledgeable and communicative. Lance did multiple visits to us before starting work to ensure the best end result, our bathroom was a difficult refurbishment to say the least, but the final result is a testament to Lance and the teams skill and determination. When the work was being completed they were clean and tidy, often worked incredibly long days and kept me informed on any changes or challenges. He worked with us to keep to our budget updated us on any additional material charges. My neighbour even commented on how friendly and polite they all were. I have already recommended Lance to multiple people but will also have them back for any other renovation we need completing in the future. I wouldn't go with anyone else now.

Recently had our Bathroom renovated by Cooksey Renovation; they did a fantastic job throughout and transformed our bathroom! The quality of their work is to a very high standard. They arrived on the agreed date to commence the renovation, were on time every morning, cleaned up after them every evening, and were pleasant and communicative throughout. I can’t recommend this company highly enough and would certainly use them again or recommend them to friends and family.

Cooksey renovations and the team did an amazing job with our new kitchen and flooring. The job needed blocking up doors, windows and a fair bit of plastering. They were all really tidy and cleaned up after each day before they left. I'm so happy with the work they have done. Thank you!

I cannot recommend Lance and his team enough! They have renovated both my bathroom and en-suite as well as repairing and replastering my living room ceiling following existing water damage. When I moved into my house, I knew there was gonna be a lot of work to do following previous leaks in the en suite and previous bad workmanship. All the team were professional, trustworthy and skilled in how they transformed my house. They kept everything clean and tidy (I even caught them hoovering my doorstep at one stage!) and made the house useable in between their working days. I had a very specific vision and they were able to make my dreams come to life and I’m so pleased with the end result. They ripped out my old suites, replaced rotten floor boards, rebuilt damaged walls and install all new paperwork. Nothing was too much trouble and they were also the most competitive quote I received. I have a kitchen and artexed ceilings to be renovated in the new year and there is no one else I would consider using. Thanks guys! I really love what you’ve done!

A return visit by Cooksey renovations to tile the floor of 3 existing bathrooms that didn’t need a complete re fitting. The work was to the highest and we are delighted with the end result. We have no reservations in recommending Cooksey renovations for this type of work.
