- Free site visit
- Fixed written quote
- Written workmanship guarantee
House extensions in Bath, Trowbridge and across BANES — from a side-return on a terraced street to a double-storey rear build. We handle planning drawings, structural steel, groundworks and Building Control in one fixed-price contract, so the number you sign is the number you pay. Single-storey builds typically run 10–14 weeks; double-storey 16–24 weeks — both confirmed at quote, not discovered mid-build.
Saltford sits directly on the Avon between Bath and Bath, and its housing reflects that setting — a village core of older cottages close to the lock and marina, surrounded by family houses on quieter estate roads set slightly back from the water. Riverside plots bring specific ground and drainage conditions we've dealt with repeatedly, and the village's period core means some projects fall within local planning constraints that need managing from the outset. Whether it's a full rear extension or a garden landscaping scheme that makes the most of a riverside plot, we bring the same structural rigour we apply to our larger Bath commissions.
