Belvedere. The very name suggests beautiful buildings. And the town certainly lives up to its name.

A largely residential area boasting of incredible examples of Victorian and Edwardian architecture, it is seen as an ideal place in which to raise a family. Living in Belvedere means you would not want to move anywhere else.

However, a lack of living space can often create a dilemma for property owners in Belvedere. Home extensions are therefore seen as the obvious solution.

This is where Good Design and Build come in. With years of experience in creating bespoke house extensions to suit the specifications of homeowners in Belvedere, we are the ultimate home extension specialists.

Comprising of architects, builders, technicians, and project managers, Good Design and Build are truly the one-stop destination to design and build uniquely crafted home extensions in Belvedere.

With a wide range of home extensions types and designs, property owners can create:

Rear Extensions

Rear extensions create many possibilities in how a building may be renovated to increase the living and functional space within. Rear extensions are useful in designing open-floor plans, kitchen extensions, or even to add guest rooms or office pods. This versatility makes rear extensions one of the most desirable types of home extensions in Belvedere.

Side Return Extensions

Side return extensions utilise the space that runs along the side of a property and a portion of the rear area. Side return extensions differ from wraparound extensions in that they do not take up much of the valuable garden space. These extensions are generally built alongside the existing property and are therefore ideal for creating indoor-outdoor connections.

Multi-Storey Extensions

Multi-storey extensions are more complicated than single-storey extensions and thereby certainly require planning permission. These can generally be built on any part of the property provided that adequate area is available. Multi-storey extensions add immense value to a home as the square footage of the property increases significantly. Multi-storey extensions are useful in creating bedrooms, bathrooms, offices, and even dining areas.

Though extensions of limited sizes may fall under permitted developments, most home extensions in Belvedere require planning permission and building regulations approval.

Good Design and Build oversee the entire process of obtaining planning permission making it a stress-free experience for homeowners.

This includes surveying the location, drawing, compiling and calculating detailed designs of the proposed extension, submitting a comprehensive application, coordinating with the local council, and securing the requisite planning permission and building regulations approval.

Needless to say, our extensive expertise and constant diligence ensures every home extension complies with building controls and guidelines.

Seamlessly integrating the extension into the original structure is crucial in designing successful house extensions in Belvedere. Some of the best home extensions feature:

Garage Conversions

Garage conversions are relatively quick and simple solutions to increasing the living space of a home. The versatility of the space, and the possibilities it creates make garage conversions extremely desirable among homeowners. The converted space can be incorporated into the functional layout of the house creating much-needed living space and additional room.

Loft Conversions

Loft conversions are ideal for creating additional bedrooms upstairs. The design variability and functionality of loft conversions provide homeowners with many options on how to optimise unused areas of the home and convert them to useful spaces.

Kitchen Extensions

Invariably one of the more popular extension styles, kitchen extensions help to open up the kitchen area into a warm and inviting space. With the right fittings and fixtures, the area can be converted into a modern space that is perfect for hosting family dinners and which also adds great value to a property.

Refurbishments

Not every home improvement project necessitates an extension. The functional space of a home can be increased and improved upon by utilising the existing area and maximising its potential. This generally involves refurbishing and renovating the space by the creation of open floor plans and optimising the natural light that enters into the room. This helps to construct a larger, brighter, and more modern living area.

Home extension costs in Belvedere depend on several factors such as:

  • Type/ intricacy of the extension
  • Size of the extension
  • Location
  • Groundwork
  • Building materials
  • Fittings and fixtures
  • Specialists’ fees

It is always a good idea to get an estimate of the cost of the home extension by reputed builders such as Good Design and Build.

How we deliver projects

Our process is simple and divided into two distinct phases with separate contracts: Design and Build. As a client you only commit to one phase at a time depending on what stage of the process you are in. Each phase consists of three stages as described below.

1. Design

This is the kick-off point for your project. We carry out a complete architectural measured survey of the property. This allows us to create accurate CAD design drawings. This is followed by a design meeting to start discussing your ideas in more detail.

2. Planning

At this stage we finalise the designs with you and start preparing planning applications as needed. We place a high priority on ensuring that plans, designs and schedules are all based on a thorough and detailed understanding of planning guidelines. We co-ordinate with local authorities until the decision is made, and the planning approval is secured.

3. Technical

Once the planning consent is secured, we translate the design drawings into more detailed technical drawings for the purposes of building control and construction. This also includes specifications and structural calculations. At this stage, we will also submit to you our ‘no obligation’ quote for the build phase.

4. Pre-build

90% of our clients decide to stick with us after the design phase is completed. Once the build contract is signed, we kick off the process by making sure all the pre-build processes are complete. These include assistance with party wall agreements, Thames Water build over agreement, submitting building control application, and preparing method statements etc as needed. This stage ends with a pre-start meeting with your foreman before the actual build begins.

5. Build

One of our foremen will be dedicated to your project and will be on-site to manage everyday works. Our project managers will be overseeing the works to make sure they are completed to high standards, within your budget and on time. Throughout the process we will keep you updated with the progress and coordinate the works with third parties such as kitchen or flooring suppliers. We will also advise and guide you to choose any suppliers if needed.

6. Handover

As the build draws to finish, we will help to iron out any ‘snags’ to make sure everything is completed to your satisfaction. We will put together all necessary certificates such as gas, electricity and building control completion along with warranties for glazing, boiler etc. At the final completion meeting, we will hand you these documents, together with the keys to your house. Needless to say, you can contact us any time after this, if you want us to look at something.
