House Extension FAQs - Exmouth & East Devon
How long does a house extension take in Exmouth?
Most single-storey extensions take between 10 and 14 weeks from groundwork to completion, depending on specification and complexity. Two-storey builds typically run between 14 and 20 weeks. We provide a clear, realistic timeline before work begins and keep you updated throughout you can read more about how we manage projects on our building services page.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension?
Many single-storey rear extensions fall under Permitted Development rights, meaning planning permission may not be required. However, there are specific limits on height, depth, and proximity to boundaries that vary depending on your property type and location. Properties in conservation areas (common in Budleigh Salterton and parts of East Devon) may have additional restrictions. We work closely with homeowners and architects to confirm requirements before any work begins, ensuring your project is fully compliant from the start.
How much does a house extension cost?
Extension costs vary significantly depending on size, structural requirements, specification level, and site conditions. A straightforward single-storey rear extension in Exmouth will differ in cost from a two-storey build requiring substantial steelwork and bespoke joinery. Rather than quoting generic figures, we provide detailed, transparent quotations based on your specific plans. Get in touch for an initial conversation about your project.
Can you match an extension to my existing property style?
This is central to how we approach every extension. Whether your home is a Victorian terrace, a 1930s semi, or a more contemporary property, we work to ensure the new build integrates with the existing structure matching brickwork, rooflines, window proportions, and interior detailing. Our background in bespoke carpentry and joiner means we can replicate period features or create a considered contrast where a more modern extension is the right design choice.
