Home Extensions in Poynton, Cheshire East

We do not believe in "one size fits all" builds. Every house in Poynton has its own character, and your extension should reflect that. Often, a single-storey rear extension is all it takes to create that stunning open-plan kitchen-diner you have seen in magazines. If you have got the space, a double-storey side extension can give you that master ensuite or home office you have been dreaming of. We also see a lot of interest in orangeries – they are a fantastic way to bring in natural light while still feeling like a solid, permanent part of your home. We handle everything from the first spade in the ground to the final lick of paint, so you won't have to worry about chasing different trades.

Construction can feel daunting, but we are here to take the weight off your shoulders. We manage the entire project in stages, starting with the groundworks and footings to ensure everything is rock solid. When it comes to opening up your space, we are experts at installing RSJs (rolled steel joists) safely and efficiently. We talk about the build in "fixes" – 1st fix covers the hidden stuff like wiring and plumbing, 2nd fix is where you start seeing the plasterboard and joinery, and 3rd fix is the exciting part where we finish the decoration and fit your new kitchen or bathroom. It is a turnkey solution designed to keep disruption to a minimum.

One of the first questions we always get is about planning permission. In many cases, you might be able to build under Permitted Development (PD) rights, which simplifies things significantly. However, even if you do not need full planning, you definitely need Building Regulations sign-off. This isn't just red tape; it is your proof that the work is safe, energy-efficient, and structurally sound – something that is vital if you ever decide to sell your home. As local builders who know the Poynton area well, we will guide you through the rules and ensure your project stays on the right side of the law.

Because we started as roofing specialists, we bring a level of expertise to the "top" of your extension that many general builders might miss. Whether you want a traditional slate or tile roof to match your existing house, or a modern GRP fibreglass flat roof for a sleek look, we have got you covered. We also look out for things like chimney repairs or leadwork that might need attention while the scaffolding is up. It is all about protecting your investment. If you are worried about old spray foam insulation in your existing roof, we can even help with safe removal to make sure your whole property is up to current standards.
