Rear Extensions Stapleford

Rear Extensions Built for Stapleford Homes
Many Stapleford properties are 1930s semis and post war family homes with long, narrow gardens. A rear extension makes the most of that garden depth, letting you push the back of the house out to create an open plan kitchen diner without touching the front of the street scene. This keeps the character of roads like Warren Avenue and Toton Lane while giving you the modern space today’s families need.
Because the extension sits at the back, work stays out of sight and disruption to neighbours is kept low. We match brick and render to your existing home where possible, so the new space looks like it was always part of the house rather than a bolt on.
Whether you want a compact 3 metre extension to fit a bigger kitchen or a full width build with bi-fold doors onto the garden, we scale the design to your budget and the size of your plot.
