Your #1 Property Extension Company

Understanding Your Project Goals

When we begin, we’ll take time to understand your brief; you may also have ideas of how your house extension will look. We’ll consider this but also consider costs, planning constraints and buildability. There’s no point in designing something that can’t be built!

Striving to Create Quality Spaces

Our first goal is to create spaces that meet requirements and exceed our client’s expectations. We love to hear that our clients are enjoying their new extension, which gives us the energy to go on.

Believe In Quality Design for Everyone

Good design should not be limited to some Architects only. We are here to provide excellent architectural environments at a more realistic cost than some architect fees. If you are concerned about the fees associated with a house extension, speak to our team today!

Pushing Technical Detail

Every house extension project is unique, and ensuring it is buildable should be considered from the outset. Should we provide technical drawings, we’ll reduce risks on-site by considering all parts of your project. This should lead to overall cost savings and minimised delays.

High Planning Success Rate

We always take on projects where the principle of development seems unlikely to be approved. During the design, we’ll use our knowledge and check planning policies to give your application the best chance of success. We have worked with many authorities and understand how planning applications are decided.

Flexible Design Approach

We are not fixed to one design style; therefore, we can be used for realist house extension design to ultra-contemporary. We will listen to your brief and design a bespoke extension meeting your needs.

Our Reviews

  • We have just started work on a project designed by Detailed Planning. Their communication, honesty and consideration of budget were great – and they got it through planning and permissions with the council quickly and painlessly. Thanks
    Jennifer Rainsford
  • After buying my new house, Detailed-Planning helped me make the best out of it, through a rear extension and a loft conversion. They have also redesigned the internal ground floor layout to include a wide and light open plan area facing my garden… Very proficient and quick professionals during the whole process!
    Furthermore, after gaining the planning permission, they produced the technical drawings and suggested consultants they usually liaise with.
    I am looking forward to seeing my new dwelling taking shape!
    Thanks Paul and your team for your precious help.

    Andrea Semenzin
  • We were delighted with the design that Paul and Emily created for our kitchen and utility room extension. From start to finish, they were accommodating and open to any changes we wanted. They supported us through the build, from concept to planning permission to even recommending the builder we used. We’d highly recommend them and will be in touch again if we have any future projects!
