No plans yet and no planning permission as yet. We live in a semi detached 3 bedroom house. We are looking to extend hopefully creating 1 bedroom + 1 box room/office.
We are looking to retain the driveway leading to the garage so essentially having a 1st storey extension over the driveway.
A few questions:-
Do builders prefer to do the whole job as opposed to client supplying materials and asking only to complete the building part only, ie structure, roof, and internal flooring and woodwork. I with the help of colleagues would complete the rest.
Can I ask a builder to quote me for works with no permission and draft drawings or would it be better to get quotes once permission has been granted and drawings completed by architect.
Finally is there a ballpark figure for the kind of extension I'm looking for.
We're looking not at a full length extension but a three quarter ext.
No measurements have been taken at this stage. One more thing presumably I need to get the deeds to establish boundary?
Information would be greatly appreciated.
