There's a guy locally who has been used by people round here (I looked on planning applications on council site) :)

That's fine then. Just the awful job of trying to find a decent builder... :(

I thought it would be in the region of £30 to £34,000

Starting to think about an extension across the back of my bungalow. Think it would fall under Permitted Development. I would like to get some idea of costing in the first instance to see if it will come within my budget :( What is the best way of going about this as I would hate to waste...

Many thanks both. Fabulous forum - always get good assistance xx

Many thanks for that Crank - I presumed the threshold would be aluminium sort. They didn't say anything when we said to have the grey frame. Hopefully they will come next week and touch it up.

Had a composite front door and side panel fitted on Wednesday. The frame is anthracite grey which I paid an extra £100 for. The threshold has several scratches and is white where the paint has come off. The company want to fill them in with a 'pen'. Does anyone know if this is the usual way...

you boys have been naughty while I was away!! LOL Anyway a acquaintance of OH turns out to be an architectural technician so he's going to sort me out....as so to speak! thanks guys as always very helpful.

I'll do that in next few days. Many thanks

Thanks Tom You wouldn't have any rough guide as to how much would you? I would like to get some rough guide on what it would cost before I take it any further. It will be kitchen / diner as open plan as can be done due to size (not sure if will need any pillar/s)

We are thinking of an extension across the back of our bungalow. Approx 8 m wide and go out 4 - 5 m This is the apex end of the property and am wondering if there would be a massive difference in price for a flat roof compared to carrying on the shape of the roof as the rest of the bungalow...

You've made me think now to go for wood. Many thanks (y)

mmm.... thanks guys. Mine is south facing and I'm on the south coast ! I'm going to have another think before committing myself to anything. :confused:

Ready to replace our front door. Thinking of composite one. Are Eurocell quality ok? After bit of research on internet I see a lot of different firms doing same styles but at varying prices and can't tell what the difference is. Eurocell is local to me and recommend a fitter. Opinions...

Thanks David. I hadn't thought about the delivery cost. Even though Wickes belong to TP they charge vastly different prices! TP will deliver anything over £50 exc VAT for free but they charge more per bag (£50.40 inc) All swings and roundabouts just to confuse us :confused:

Just looking on-line for Jumbo bags of gravel at Wickes and TravisPerkins. Neither give amount in bags but quite a difference in price. Does anyone know if they are same size and therefore Wickes are better value? Many thanks

Absolutely Tom - thank you. Noseall maybe I'll have a go at the brickwork too!!!! Don't be silly but having said that many years ago we wanted an extension on our shop workshop and my husband's 'sketch' was so good the builders used it!!! Being a wench and as it will be complicated esp...

Thank you for replies. Tape measure will be out tomorrow with some sketching :)

Could you please point me in the right direction. We have decided to have an extension on our bungalow so where do we start please. Builder or architect? Many thanks
