Extensions & Building Work in Oswestry
Single-storey extensions and structural building work carried out by the same team, managed from groundwork through to a weathertight shell.
I take on extension and building work alongside glazing projects and as standalone jobs. It starts with footings dug and poured correctly before anything goes on top. The blockwork goes up square, the roof is tied in and made weathertight, and openings for windows and doors are formed to the sizes required.
Having the same team do the building work and the glazing means the openings are built to fit the frames going in, no back-and-forth between separate contractors. When the build is done and the glazing is in, the site is cleared and the job is finished.

FAQs
Extensions & Building Work: common questions
Do you take on building work on its own?
Yes. I take on extension and building work alongside glazing projects and as standalone jobs.
Can the same team fit the windows and doors?
Yes. Openings are built to fit the frames going in, so there is no back and forth between separate contractors.
Do I need planning permission for a single-storey extension?
It depends on the size and position. Many single-storey extensions are permitted development, but some need planning permission. Check with your council before work starts.
