Money doesn't grow on trees. So how much does it actually cost to build an extension in Bath in 2024? We answer the question in our most in-depth and requested blog yet. Read the full article (and find out how you can make savings) via https://lnkd.in/eRv7FyBr , but here's a quick summary: 1. An architect helps to manage your budget, which needs to cover the build cost - approx 70% - and all other associated costs such as approvals, design, surveys, contingency, and of course VAT - all these vary depending on your project, but usually approx 30%. 2. The build cost (before VAT) in Bath for a single storey extension is similar to London, at about £2,900-£3,600 per square meter. 3. Therefore a 20sqm extension build cost should be about £60k... 4...But you also need to factor in works to the existing house, about another £50k in this case, including a new kitchen. 5. Which gives us a total net build cost of £110,000. 6. And we would advise a total budget of around £160,000.

The construction market in prime central London is beginning to show signs of slowing down. Building contractors, who once had overflowing pipelines, are now actively seeking new projects, with some even reducing their prices to win contracts. Interior designers are also adjusting to this shift, taking on smaller projects than usual. As the market cools, we expect buyers to start seeing more opportunities to take on renovation projects at lower costs. This shift will also benefit landlords looking to refurbish properties ahead of the next tenancy cycle. Read more… #Eccord #LondonPropertyAdvisors #LondonBuyingAgent

Why PD (Permitted Development) should be on your radar for easy Property Developments in the coming years... It's never been easier to get permission for the conversion of commercial spaces into residential units. Permitted development allowances mean the power is taken away from the council planners which makes permission relatively easy to obtain. If you're like me, when you walk around the streets you look up and see so many vacant spaces above High Street shops which would be perfect for conversion into Apartments. So what do you need to look out for? Watch this vid to find out more, and if you need help assessing or achieving planning permission on your own schemes, then please get in touch. We are architects, interior designers and developers, so the experience achieved through implementing these schemes for ourselves is worth its weight in gold for anyone looking to step up into the commercial conversion space. 81 North #propertydevelopment #propertyinvestment #commercialconversion #conversion #commercial #property #propertydeveloper #realestate

Is it time to 'draw the line'? To effectively adopt Welsh Governments 'Delivering Net Zero Homes', 'Modern Methods of Construction' and 'Design for Manufacturing and Assembly' aspirations do we simply need to 'draw the line' on existing house type layouts? Twenty years ago, a design guide for Social Housing in Wales featured a plan for a 3-bedroom 5 person house. Variations of this house are still being built today but is it an appropriate solution? To simplify things we 'drew a line' on the plan and developed Creu Cartref's Gamelin housetype which: - has circulation, shower room, storage, plant, c'boards, single bedroom and bathroom to one side of the line and lounge, kitchen and double bedrooms to the other. - is 93m/sq complying with Welsh Governments standards. - first floor and ground floor partitions are aligned to simplify the construction process and allow it to be delivered as traditional construction ( brick and block ) , panelised frame ( timber/ light gauge steel ) or fully volumetric modular. - the zone where 200x 100mm ductwork openings can be formed in engineered timber joists without compromising their structural integrity can be clearly identified and allows for ductwork runs in the floor joists between the lounge and kitchen. - 4.6 m/sq of useable storage space exceeds the 2.5 m/sq required by Welsh Government standards and is completely free from plant and equipment. - in addition to the useable storage there is 1.5 m/sq of dedicated plant and equipment storage. - the layout includes a dedicated service riser that does not compromise any storage space. - a single soil stack at the rear of the property services the shower room, plant and equipment stores and the first floor bathroom. - the through the floor lift allowance doesn't compromise space available for services within the floor void. - all inlet and outlet ductwork is at the rear of the property and therefore not compromised by an entrance door canopy. - consistent wall panels and floor cassette types simplify manufacturing. - consistent floor cassettes can have factory-formed openings in engineered timber joists extending to the external wall for ease of rigid ductwork installation.

A basement conversion is a great way to add value to a home, create additional living space, and make use of an unused area. But before starting a basement conversion, it’s important to plan carefully and do your research. Here are our top 5 tips for a successful basement conversion: 1️⃣ Decide the purpose: Know what you want the space to be. Will it be a bedroom, office, playroom, or home cinema? This will help guide the design and layout. 2️⃣ Check if it’s feasible: Get an architect or structural engineer to check if your basement is suitable for conversion. They can help with any structural concerns and make sure everything meets local building regulations. 3️⃣ Know your budget: Basement conversions are a significant investment. Make sure to plan for costs like materials, labour, and design fees. Include a little extra for unexpected expenses such as excavations or structural work. 4️⃣ Get the right permissions: In many cases, you’ll need planning permission from your local council. Don’t forget about building regulations, especially for fire safety, ventilation, and waterproofing. 5️⃣ Prevent damp issues : Basements can be damp, so proper damp proofing and waterproofing is essential to avoid future problems. It’s also important to find out where the local water table sits. These tips can help ensure a smooth and successful basement conversion. #HughesGroup #Architects #EstateAgents #CharteredSurveyors #BasementConversionsLondon #BasementConversionsBerkshire
