House prices are seemingly forever skyrocketing and in such a great place to live as Gloucestershire, it’s no surprise that homeowners are choosing to extend their existing living spaces rather than up and move altogether. At Refresh Renovations Gloucester, we plan and build extensions throughout the county for all kinds of home additions.

What aspects of Extension Building do Refresh undertake?

No matter how big or small your extension plans, Refresh can manage all aspects of the job. This includes:
- Construction
- Demolition
- Home extensions
- Ground floor extensions
- Single storey extensions
- Double-storey extensions
- Adding a second storey
- Home additions
- Interior design
- Floor plans
- Electrical work
- Plumbing

What are the trends in Extension Builds?

We are seeing increasing demand for home extensions across the board as homeowners look to extend their existing living space – no doubt somewhat influenced by the recent years where so many of us have spent so much enforced time at home. Recent projects throughout Gloucester and the surrounding areas have included lots of bright and airy ground-floor extensions converting kitchens and living rooms into open-plan layouts, with lots of skylights installed and in some cases, full orangery-type rooms.

How much does an Extension Build cost?

Extension costs vary dependent on the storey of the addition. Generally speaking, a single-storey extension costs in the region of £1,500-£2,500 per square metre, and between £3,000-£4,500 per square metre for a two-storey extension. These cover the very basic costs for beginning your extension build, but it may be worth bearing in mind that adding plumbing, windows and electrics will begin to increase that budgetary demand. Including more complex internal installations such as kitchens or bathrooms will also will also begin to drive up that budget consideration, but with Refreshes bespoke service, you have an independent budget guidance from an early stage, and your Refresh Renovation consultant will work with you to help guide your product choices within your desired budget range.

Why choose Refresh for your Extension Build?

Refresh Renovations have won awards worldwide for their all-encompassing project management approach. Assigning a dedicated project manager to every job allows for full management without the homeowners having to be present throughout – so you’re able to continue with your daily routines without any disruption. 

Will I need planning permission for my Extension? ‍

Most building extensions can be completed under Permitted Development Rights (PDRs), provided that the scope of the extension fits into certain measurements and requirements. A Refresh Renovations consultant will be able to advise you of exactly what can be achieved under PDRs, or what could be done with granted formal planning permission – and we’ll manage the whole process either way.
