Home Extensions in Manchester, Manchester

No two families use their homes the same way, so why should every extension look identical? You might be dreaming of a rear extension that flows into the garden, perfect for those rare Manchester summer days. Or perhaps a side-return wrap-around is the answer to that cramped, dark galley kitchen. We specialise in both single and double-storey builds, taking care of everything from the first spade in the ground to the moment you turn the key. We’ve seen first-hand how a well-placed set of bi-fold doors or a vaulted ceiling with Velux windows can completely change the mood of a home, bringing in much-needed light and air.

Building an extension can feel like a bit of a jigsaw puzzle, but we handle all the pieces for you. We’re not just here for the bricks and mortar; we manage the entire programme of works. This starts with the heavy lifting—groundworks and foundations—and moves through to the '1st fix' where we get the wiring and plumbing hidden away. Then comes the '2nd fix' for joinery and plastering, and finally the '3rd fix' where we add the decoration and those final touches that make it yours. If your dream involves an open-plan layout, we’re experts at installing the right RSJs (steel beams) to safely knock through existing walls while keeping everything structurally sound.

Do I need planning permission? It’s the first thing everyone asks us. The good news is that many Manchester projects fall under Permitted Development (PD) rights, meaning you can often build without a full planning application, provided you stick to certain size and height rules. However, every build absolutely needs Building Regulations sign-off. This isn’t just red tape; it’s your guarantee that the work is safe, energy-efficient, and legal for when you eventually come to sell. We work closely with Building Control throughout the process, ensuring every stage is inspected and approved so you have total peace of mind that your investment is protected.
