Will I need planning permission for a DIY home extension?
Are your DIY home extension kits building controls approved?
Good news! All of our extension kits have received building controls pre-approval from a nationally accredited building control approvals agency. They’ve undergone rigorous testing, including detailed analysis and verification of the roof system using independently sourced structural calculations. They were also assessed for thermal performance and condensation risk analysis, which resulted in us being granted with System Approval.
How much do your DIY home extension kits cost?
As each Trade Price Warmer Living extension kit is made bespoke for the home it’s being fitted onto, the exact price can vary considerably – a large, more complex design will cost more than a simpler one, and vice versa.
Do I need to be an experienced builder to install your DIY extension kits?
Not at all – in fact, our kits are specifically designed to be beginner friendly! We provide clear, step-by-step instructions for what you need to do next, so you can have your extension up and ready for use in no time. We also include all you need to complete your build in one package, so you don’t need to worry about buying bricks or extra building materials.
