Home Extensions in Sussex
At Concept Developers, we design and build high quality home extensions, providing a fully managed service from the initial consultation through to the final finishing touches.
Professional Home Extensions Across Sussex
Whether your family is growing, you're working from home more often or you simply want to make better use of your property, a home extension can transform the way you live without the cost and disruption of moving.
At Concept Developers, we specialise in designing and building home extensions that complement your existing property while creating practical, attractive living spaces. From the earliest planning stages through to construction and completion, we manage every aspect of your extension project, giving you complete peace of mind throughout the build.
Types of House Extensions
Every property is different, which is why we offer a range of extension options to suit different homes, lifestyles and budgets. We'll discuss your ideas, assess your property and recommend the most suitable solution for your requirements.
- Single Storey Extension - A single storey extension is ideal for creating a larger kitchen, dining room or open-plan family living area. This is one of the most popular ways to improve the layout of your home while increasing usable living space.
- Double Storey Extension - A double storey extension provides valuable additional space across two floors, making it an excellent option for growing families who need extra bedrooms, bathrooms or larger living areas.
- Wrap Around Extension - Combining both side and rear extensions, a wrap around extension creates a significantly larger footprint and can completely transform the layout of your property. This option works particularly well for creating spacious, open-plan kitchens and entertaining areas.
- Second Storey Additions - Building upwards can be an effective solution where outside space is limited. A second storey addition allows you to create extra bedrooms, bathrooms or home offices without reducing your garden space.
How Much Does a Home Extension Cost?
The cost of a home extension depends on the size of the project, the type of extension and the specification you choose. Every property is unique, so we'll always provide advice based on your individual requirements.
Factors that influence the overall cost include:
- The size of the extension
- Foundation and ground conditions
- Structural alterations
- Kitchen or bathroom installations
- Glazing and roof design
- Internal finishes and bespoke features
Following an initial consultation and site visit, we'll provide a detailed, no-obligation quotation tailored to your project, so you know exactly what is included before work begins.
Our Home Extension Process
We believe every building project should be well organised, clearly communicated and professionally managed from beginning to end.
Our typical process includes:
- Initial consultation and site visit
- Design and layout planning
- Advice on planning permission and permitted development
- Building Regulations guidance
- Construction and project management
- Internal finishing works
- Final handover
Throughout your extension project, we'll keep you informed of progress, answer any questions you may have and ensure everything runs as smoothly as possible from start to finish.
Do Home Extensions Need Planning Permission?
Many home extensions can be completed under permitted development, meaning formal planning permission may not be required. However, this depends on the size, design and location of your proposed extension, along with the type of property you own.
Planning permission may be required if:
- Your extension exceeds permitted development limits
- Your property is located within a conservation area
- Previous alterations have affected your permitted development rights
- The proposed design significantly alters the existing property
We'll assess your plans from the outset and explain whether planning permission is required. Where necessary, we can guide you through the application process and help ensure everything is prepared correctly.
Information is based on current Planning Portal guidance. Requirements may vary depending on your property and local authority.
