The most obvious benefit to a home extension rather than actually moving house is the cost, you will definitely save money, time and resources by investing in a professionally built extension for your current home rather than finding the large amount of money needed to move to a bigger property. The footings and design for the extension will probably need planning permission and the possible use of Planning Maps this can all be done by the professional builder you hire to complete the job.
Home extensions are individually designed to suit whatever purpose you need the extra room for, they can go up into the attic space, out to the side of the property or sit directly behind or in front, the choice is yours. Do you need extra space for a new baby or an older relative coming to live with you? Will the extension be used as a play room or a much needed large utility room? Whatever the cost of your extra room the value that you add to the price of your home will increase so any money you spend will be returned if you ever decide you do want to move.
Saving yourselves the stress of putting your much-loved home on the market, finding competent movers, packing all your valuables into hundreds of boxes, plus the cost of Estate Agents, Surveyors and Solicitors to name just a few!
