What are the current home extension trends in Leicester?

Leicester is a great place to live, so it's no surprise that homeowners in the city and its suburbs are opting to extend rather than emigrate. Although there are challenges in the area with extending upwards, there's no such impact on extending outward – and the latest trends in property extensions have seen Refresh manage bedroom and en-suite additions (for both growing families and to rent out on sites such as Airbnb), sunroom extensions and lots of open-plan kitchens to facilitate both socialising and dining alike!

How much does a home extension design and build cost?

Of course, every home extension project is different and so there's no one-quote-fits-all for such jobs, but there is a ballpark. Generally speaking, a single-storey build with no complications should cost between £1,200 - £2,500 per square metre of new space to build a shell. However, the internal renovations costs are very much in the control of the customer, with product slecetions being the contributor to additional costings. There is a large difference in pricing between a basic floor tile, and a marble floor tile, or a laminate worktop and a granite sworktop. Your renovation consultant will take you through our design and planning stages to work towards a costing which is most in keeping with your budget.

Why choose Refresh for a home extension project?

Refresh Renovations Leicester manage every aspect of their extensions from start to finish, providing a single point of contact for homeowners while ensuring the experts deliver the best possible quality finish.

Will I need planning permission for my home extension?

Smaller home extensions can sometimes be constructed under homeowners' permitted development rights, and Refresh will be able to advise you on exact requirements once we have finalised the design stage of the project. In the event planning permission is required, your Refresh project manager will manage all of the admin and liaise with the local planning authority on your behalf to deliver a home extension build which meets all requirements while not deviating from the designated timeline or budget.
