Extensions Service FAQs
Will I need planning permission for an extension in Cambridge?
It depends on the project. Many single-storey extensions fall under permitted development, but larger or two-storey extensions generally require planning permission.
Can I live in my home during the extension work?
Yes, most clients choose to remain in their homes while work is ongoing, and we strive to minimize disruption.
How long does a typical extension take to complete?
Times vary by size and complexity, but single-storey extensions typically take 10-12 weeks and double-storey extensions 16-20 weeks.
