House extensions carried out across South West London
House Extensions in
Teddington & Twickenham
A house extension can give you the additional space you need without having to leave a home and location you already enjoy.
From a larger kitchen and dining area to an extra bedroom, home office or new family space, an extension can be designed around the way you want to use your property.
At Imperial Developments London Ltd, we build house extensions in Teddington, Twickenham and surrounding areas, helping homeowners make better use of the space available around their property.
We can undertake extensions as part of a standalone project or combine the work with a wider home renovation.
Our team manages the different stages of the build with careful attention to the existing property, practical requirements and quality of the finished space.
Types of House Extensions
The right extension will depend on your property, the available space and what you want to achieve. We can help create an extension that feels like a natural part of your existing home rather than simply an additional room.
Rear Extensions
Rear extensions are a popular way to increase ground floor living space, particularly when creating larger kitchens, dining rooms and open plan family areas with a stronger connection to the garden.
Side Return Extensions
A side return extension can make use of narrow or underused space alongside the property. This can be particularly effective for improving the width and layout of kitchens and other ground floor rooms.
Double Storey Extensions
Where suitable, extending across two floors can provide significantly more living space. This can create additional room downstairs while also allowing for new or larger bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs.
What can a house extension include?
A house extension involves more than constructing the additional walls and roof. The new space needs to work with the existing property both structurally and internally.
Structural Alterations
Creating an extension can require alterations to the existing property, including forming new openings and changing internal layouts so the new and existing spaces work together.
Kitchens & Living Spaces
Extensions are often used to create larger kitchens, dining rooms and family areas. These spaces can be planned around how you cook, entertain and spend time at home.
Plumbing & Electrics
New rooms may require lighting, sockets, heating, plumbing and other services. These can be incorporated into the project and connected with the existing property.
Windows, Doors & Finishes
Windows, rooflights and doors can help introduce natural light and connect the extension with the garden. Flooring, plastering, joinery and decorating complete the new interior.
What happens during a house extension?
Every extension is different, but a typical project can involve:
- Preparing the site and constructing foundations
- Building the walls and roof structure
- Making openings into the existing property
- Installing windows, doors and insulation
- Completing plumbing and electrical work
- Plastering, flooring and internal finishes
- Completing final details and checks
Planning Your House Extension
Planning a house extension involves more than deciding how much additional space you need. Depending on the size, position and design of the extension, planning permission may be required, while some projects can be completed under permitted development rights.
Building Regulations can also apply to structural work, insulation, ventilation, drainage and electrics.
At Imperial Developments London Ltd, we can discuss your existing property, the space you want to create and the work involved in bringing your plans together.
