A beautiful and affluent area, complete with all the amenities and conveniences, Chiswick in West London is the ideal place for couples and young families to set up a home. And with a range of home styles from detached houses to bungalows, property owners have many options to create incredible homes filled with beautiful memories.

Homeowners looking to upgrade are also not short of opportunities. Home extensions in Chiswick are a great way to make their homes even more comfortable and spacious.

Good Design and Build are the leading home extension specialists in Chiswick, and are the go-to experts for homeowners looking to create that extra living space and elegant finish for their homes. With expertise, professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail, Good Design and Build create the ultimate home extensions that bring comfort, space, and luxury into your home.

A home extension in Chiswick is the perfect opportunity for homeowners to design and expand their homes to create additional living space, while saving on the expense and inconvenience of moving houses.

Home extensions allow homeowners to add multiple rooms or design features, and upgrade their homes to cater to their specific needs and changing lifestyles. The ideal home extension beautifully complements the existing structure while contributing to its comfort and splendour.

The type of house extension built depends on the area available within the property, the additional space required, and the budget allocated. House extensions vary in their complexity and as such, careful consideration must be given to its design. The types of house extensions commonly found in Chiswick include:

Rear extensions

An incredibly versatile and popular type of extension, rear extensions occupy the rear area and back garden area of a property. These types of extensions can be used to create guest rooms, kitchen extensions, and office pods.

Wrap around extensions

Wrap around extensions are essentially a combination of rear and side extensions that form an L-shaped structure that ‘wraps’ around a home. These extensions add enormous width and depth to a property, and are ideal for creating multiple rooms or even open floor layouts.

Side return extensions

Side return extensions utilise the area that runs along the side of the property along with a portion of the rear area. These extensions are popular among homeowners as they do not use up too much of the valuable garden space. Side return extensions have enormous potential in creating the beautiful indoor-outdoor connections that are coveted in modern dining rooms.

Multi-storey extensions

Though more complex than single-storey extensions, multi-storey connections are highly sought-after as they essentially double the square footage of single-storey extensions without adding to the roofing and excavation expenses. These extensions are perfect for adding bedrooms, bathrooms, and offices.

Yes and no.

The requirement for planning permission for home extensions in Chiswick is based largely on the design and dimensions of the proposed extension. Extensions that meet the specific criteria of permitted developments do not require planning permission. Whereas extensions constructed on properties listed in conservation areas will invariably require planning permission.

In addition to planning permission, building regulations approval and party wall agreements must also be secured to ensure that every aspect of the extension build complies with standard building guidelines and regulations.

Good Design and Build oversees this entire process for all our clients. This includes:

  • Initial survey of the location
  • Submitting architectural diagrams of the proposed extension
  • Coordinating with the local council
  • Securing the requisite approvals

This allows homeowners to enjoy the extension process stress-free.

With a myriad of options available, home extensions in Chiswick can be tailored to suit your specific needs and requirements. The best home extensions seamlessly integrate the beauty and integrity of the original structure, with the comfort and splendour of the contemporary extension design.

Some of the most popular home extension designs in Chiswick feature:

Kitchen extensions

Invariably the most-requested style of home extension, kitchen extensions are wonderful opportunities to combine modernity and elegance to create updated kitchens that are ideally suited to host intimate family dinners or large celebrations.

Garage conversions

Garage conversions are a great way to renew existing space, integrate it into the layout of the house, and create new space and dimension in a home. Their design can be varied as they could be converted into offices, playrooms, bathrooms, or guest rooms. This flexibility makes garage conversions extremely desirable to homeowners.

Loft conversions

A cost-effective solution to convert unused space upstairs into more functional living space, loft conversions are ideal for adding space and value to your home. The versatility of loft conversions allows homeowners to create unique designs perfect for fulfilling space requirements.

Refurbishments

Even without an extension, the existing space within a home can be transformed and upgraded through refurbishments. By designing open-floor plans and optimising the natural light that enters, larger and brighter modern living spaces are created.

The cost of house extensions in Chiswick can range from £35,000 to £140,000. This is because the cost of house extensions is dependent on a number of factors and variables including:

  • The type/ complexity of extension
  • The size of the extension
  • Location
  • Groundwork
  • Building materials
  • Fittings and fixtures
  • Specialists’ fees, etc.

How we deliver projects

Our process is simple and divided into two distinct phases with separate contracts: Design and Build. As a client you only commit to one phase at a time depending on what stage of the process you are in. Each phase consists of three stages as described below.

1. Design

This is the kick-off point for your project. We carry out a complete architectural measured survey of the property. This allows us to create accurate CAD design drawings. This is followed by a design meeting to start discussing your ideas in more detail.

2. Planning

At this stage we finalise the designs with you and start preparing planning applications as needed. We place a high priority on ensuring that plans, designs and schedules are all based on a thorough and detailed understanding of planning guidelines. We co-ordinate with local authorities until the decision is made, and the planning approval is secured.

3. Technical

Once the planning consent is secured, we translate the design drawings into more detailed technical drawings for the purposes of building control and construction. This also includes specifications and structural calculations. At this stage, we will also submit to you our ‘no obligation’ quote for the build phase.

4. Pre-build

90% of our clients decide to stick with us after the design phase is completed. Once the build contract is signed, we kick off the process by making sure all the pre-build processes are complete. These include assistance with party wall agreements, Thames Water build over agreement, submitting building control application, and preparing method statements etc as needed. This stage ends with a pre-start meeting with your foreman before the actual build begins.

5. Build

One of our foremen will be dedicated to your project and will be on-site to manage everyday works. Our project managers will be overseeing the works to make sure they are completed to high standards, within your budget and on time. Throughout the process we will keep you updated with the progress and coordinate the works with third parties such as kitchen or flooring suppliers. We will also advise and guide you to choose any suppliers if needed.

6. Handover

As the build draws to finish, we will help to iron out any ‘snags’ to make sure everything is completed to your satisfaction. We will put together all necessary certificates such as gas, electricity and building control completion along with warranties for glazing, boiler etc. At the final completion meeting, we will hand you these documents, together with the keys to your house. Needless to say, you can contact us any time after this, if you want us to look at something.
