Barking IG11

Your local extension builders in Barking

Barking is a residential area with Victorian and Edwardian terraces alongside newer developments such as Barking Riverside.

Whether you are planning a rear extension for a bigger kitchen-diner or a side return to widen a narrow kitchen, we survey your home, talk through the options and give you a clear, itemised quotation with a programme of works.

Planning applications in Barking are handled by the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham. Many home extensions fall under permitted development, but if your home is in a conservation area those rights can be more limited, so we check this at the survey stage and can manage any application for you.

Our base at Ford End, near Chelmsford, is around 25 miles from Barking, so it is well within the area we cover.

Yes. We design and build rear, side return, wrap-around and double storey extensions in Barking and across IG11, managing the project from the first survey to handover.

Do I need planning permission for an extension in Barking?

Many single-storey extensions fall under permitted development, but larger, double storey or wrap-around extensions often need an application to the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham. Conservation areas can also limit permitted development. We check your property and handle any application for you.

It depends on the size, design and specification. As a guide, extensions typically cost around £1,800 to £3,000 per m², so a 30m² extension could cost roughly £60,000 to £90,000+. We provide a fixed, itemised quote once the scope is agreed.

How long does a home extension take?

Most home extensions take 10 to 18 weeks to build, depending on the size and complexity of the project, planning approvals and the weather.
