S&D provide a full home extensions design and build service to customers in Wishaw.
There are several house extensions ideas for your home, but if you wish to increase space and value, you must research home extension choices thoroughly before any work is started.
Terraced houses are attractive first-time purchases, as well as retirement alternatives for people wanting to live mortgage-free, but they may be limited in space. Instead of adding a bedroom, some terraced homes may benefit from increasing living area. Adding an additional dining room by extending the lounge and kitchen can increase the value of the property considerably.
Adding a story to the garage is a less expensive alternative to adding extra rooms and value than many people believe. You'll need the help of a surveyor or engineer to ensure that the garage's foundations can support another storey, but this is not always an issue - builders know that even minor foundation repairs are typically less expensive than constructing a whole new
Garages are frequently under-utilized areas that are either adjacent or close to the house. If you want a flexible additional area, turning your garage into a living space rather than a glorified garbage pit may be a good investment.
With all of the talk about "adding value" and creating a home that will sell, we sometimes overlook the fact that we and our families may be living in the property for some time to come! Consider what you want within your house and don't be swayed just by the future but think about what will work for your family now.
Then contact us a call to chat further about the kind of project you have in mind!
