Why Consider House Extensions in Clerkenwell?
Add value
a well-built extension is one of the most reliable ways to increase a property's resale value in Clerkenwell.
You are choosing between moving and improving
extending is often the more sensible long-term investment once moving costs are factored in.
You are outgrowing your home
a growing family, a new home office or the need for a proper dining space all point towards extending rather than moving.
Increase space
gain a larger kitchen, an extra bedroom or an open-plan living area without the cost and disruption of moving house.
You want a single point of contact
one founder-led team handling groundworks, brickwork and trade coordination avoids the gaps that appear between separate contractors.
What House Extensions in Clerkenwell Involves
Brick matching is one of the details Wayne pays closest attention to as a bricklaying specialist. Wherever possible we source matching or closely complementary brick types so the extension reads as part of the original house rather than an obvious later addition, a difference that protects both the look and the resale value of your property.
Timescales depend on the size and type of build. A single storey extension typically takes eight to twelve weeks from groundworks to completion, while a double storey extension usually takes twelve to eighteen weeks. Exact timing depends on the scope, the weather and how quickly design and planning decisions are finalised at the outset, all of which we talk through honestly before you commit.
The extensions in our gallery are all real projects completed for real homeowners, so you can see the standard of brickwork and finish before you commit.
