The beauty and grandeur of the Hampton Court Palace have their influence all through the Hampton suburb. Bordering the edges of Bushy Park, north of the palace, are Hampton Wick, Hampton village, and Hampton Hill, three neighbourhoods with charming characters of their own. From village cottages to Georgian houses, Victorian terraces to semi and detached, the eclectic mix of properties here are as beautiful as Hampton’s 1000 green acres. And the possibility to fashion your property to your liking with house extensions Hampton is delightful to discover. Although, style and comfort of a once-golden era are still evocative in architecture, in practice, we find period homes need revivifying to keep up with our centuries evolved life. Our seamless integration of the traditional to the vogue is skillfully crafted by the best architects and builders in the business.

There are different types of extensions you can undertake for your Hampton home.

Side Return Extension – if there’s ever a way to use awkward space to even things out, it is the Side Extension. The leftover garden space at the back of period properties along the boundary wall is a design centuries old. By incorporating it into the main floor area of the house, you can widen the kitchen or create a diner, a utility room, or a bathroom.

Rear Extension – blur the boundary between inside and out with an extension that offers bright natural illumination. It lengthens the floor area of your home towards the back by building onto the rear garden. This single-storey rear extension is a popular addition for open-concept kitchen extensions; it can even include an alfresco patio.

Wraparound Extension – get the benefit of both a Side Return and a Rear Extension by unifying the two to create a bigger living space. It widens and lengthens the proportions of your home for a wall-less expansive area shaped like an L or multiple individual rooms.

Double-storey extension – when you want to limit the ground floor area to save garden space or simply because there is no space for more, think of adding another storey to your extension.

A home extension falls under permitted development rights and usually requires no council permission. However, PD rights are only valid under the following conditions;

  • The property for the proposed extension is not on designated land or isn’t a listed one.
  • The extension does not take up more than 50% of your home’s existing land.
  • No new addition extends above the highest part of the roof.
  • Rear extensions for detached houses extend only up to 8m, and for semi-detached houses, only up to 6m.
  • Single-storey extensions are no taller than 4m.
  • Double-storey extensions do not extend beyond 3m or be within 7m of a boundary opposite the rear wall.
  • Double-storey windows on side elevation are obscure-glazed and non-opening.
  • There are no balconies or terraces featured in the new building.

We also assist with Party Wall Agreements and work with party wall surveyors and structural engineers to ensure your new building is lawful and remains litigation-free.

Loft conversion – when you want to add more to your existing square footage, you can build upwards as well as outwards. Make use of the generous proportions of your period home attic with a loft conversion.

Garage Conversions – if you have a disused garage simply gathering clutter, clear it out for a conversion that forms an extension or separate space. You can create a new guest bedroom, a cloakroom, a powder room, a study, or a studio. If you do not want to lose the storage space your garage provides, consider an above garage extension.

Sunroom – if your existing sitting room is not receiving enough natural light, you can move it to a Rear extension and form a brilliant sunroom encased in glazing. Introduce green indoor plants to bring in nature-inspired aesthetics.

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.
