I know no one can give exact prices, but i am looking for a little advice prior to deciding if it is worth getting a few builders in to quote - i don't want to waste their time if i cannot afford the work!
We currently have a single storey extension with the foundations dug deep enough to house a 1st story ontop of the original extension.
We are looking to build an extension that is 4.5 x 2.8m. Our neighbours have had the same job done, so our houses extensions would meet. I have spoken to the local council planning team and they see no reason why we couldn't have it done as planning wa granted previously and there are many houses in the road that have also had this work done.
Anyway, has anyone any advice on how we can cost the job ie online tools, or could anyone give me a ball park on what i could expect to pay out for materials and labour?
I ideally would like the estimates separated as i have family members who a joiner, a plaster and an electrician and gas fitter who have said they will do this at cheap day rates (we are calling in a few favours!) as long as we purchase all meterials etc
