01 Overview

Built around your home and household

An extension should improve more than the floor plan.

The best projects bring light, flow and function to the existing house—not simply more square metres.

We begin with what is not working and what you want everyday life to feel like. From there, we help coordinate the design and technical input, then manage the construction and finishing as one joined-up build.

What could change

Space that earns its place.

We shape the construction around the purpose of the room, the existing house and how the two will work together.

01

Kitchen & dining

Open up the heart of the home with better circulation, natural light and a stronger connection to the garden.

02

Family living

Create a generous everyday room, a quieter snug or a flexible space that adapts as family life changes.

03

Bedrooms & bathrooms

Add useful first-floor accommodation through a coordinated double-storey design.

04

Practical space

Build in the utility room, storage, home office or accessible layout the existing house is missing.

02 Design to build

Support before construction starts

A buildable plan.
A properly managed project.

01

Your brief

We clarify the space, priorities, finish and budget considerations that need to shape the project.

02

Architectural support

We can help coordinate the measured survey, drawings and design information needed to develop the proposal.

03

Structural design

Appropriate structural input is coordinated for foundations, steelwork, openings and other engineered elements.

04

Planning liaison

We support the relevant planning or permitted-development route and help keep information moving between the parties.

05

Technical coordination

Building Regulations, construction details, utilities and the agreed specification are brought into the delivery plan.

06

Complete build

Once ready to start, we manage the construction, trades, finishes and handover under one accountable company.

Complete construction

Every layer of the build covered.

From the ground beneath the extension to the final internal details, we coordinate the work in the right sequence.

01

Groundworks & drainage

Excavation, foundations, below-ground construction and drainage are delivered to the agreed design.

02

Structure & envelope

Masonry, structural steel, floors and roofing form a secure, weathered shell.

03

Windows & services

Windows, doors, electrics, plumbing, heating and ventilation are coordinated with the wider build.

04

Internal finish

Insulation, plastering, joinery, flooring, kitchens, decoration and final making good complete the space.

03 The process

One point of responsibility

A clear route from idea to handover.

We keep the design, approvals and construction stages connected so decisions are made at the right time and the build can progress with clarity.

The project story

Additional space, carefully connected to everyday life.

The customer wanted more living space but did not want the extension to feel like a separate addition. From the outset, the project was planned around a wide connection to the original house, a high-quality finish and the practical approvals needed to move confidently into construction.

01

The challenge

Add space without losing the flow of the home.

The new room needed to provide meaningful additional living space while remaining visually and functionally connected to the existing ground floor. Planning and Building Control also needed to be coordinated before and throughout the build.

02

Our approach

One team from approvals to interior finish.

BCS worked with the client to ensure the relevant planning and Building Control requirements were in place, then coordinated the foundations, masonry, roof, glazing and internal services. The existing house was opened up so the new room would read as a natural continuation of the living space.

03

The result

A bright, generous room that belongs to the house.

The completed extension provides a versatile new living area with direct garden access and a wide internal connection to the original rooms. The carefully finished space was warmly received by the client and now feels established as part of the home.

Helpful answers

Before planning an extension.

Do you build both single and double-storey extensions?

Yes. We have delivered both and can help assess which approach best fits the property, the space you need and the relevant design and approval considerations.

Can you help with architectural and structural design?

Yes. We can support and coordinate the architectural drawings and structural design information required for the project, working with the appropriate design professionals where needed.

Will you liaise with planning and Building Control?

Yes. We help coordinate the project information and communication required for the relevant planning route and Building Regulations process, keeping these stages connected with the construction plan.

Will my extension require planning permission?

Some house extensions can proceed under permitted-development rights when all applicable limits and conditions are met; others require a planning application. The property, previous additions and proposed design all need to be considered before the route is confirmed.

Do extensions require Building Regulations approval?

Most extensions require Building Regulations approval. The design and construction information must address the relevant structural, thermal, fire-safety, ventilation, drainage and services requirements for the specific project.

Do you manage all the trades and internal finishing?

Yes. We coordinate the agreed trades and can take the project through to a complete interior finish, including associated structural alterations and connections to the existing house.
