Questions about house extensions

What helps make an extension quotation useful?

Share the intended layout, the work you want included, any available plans and the finishes you have in mind. Customers appoint their own professionals for drawings and advice; VNS can then discuss the building scope against their plans.

What can be included in the extension work?

The agreed building scope may include roofing, plumbing, electrics, plastering, carpentry and finishing, with specialist trades arranged where needed. Your written quotation identifies the included work and any stated exclusions.

What can affect an extension quotation?

The planned building work, structural details in the appointed professionals' plans, service work, finishes, access and specialist trades can affect the scope and cost. A site visit helps identify what needs to be allowed for.

Who arranges the extension plans and advice?

Customers appoint their own professionals for drawings and architectural, structural or planning advice. VNS builds to their plans and does not provide architectural or engineering services.

How should I compare extension quotations?

Check that each quotation covers the same work and finishes. Review the stated inclusions, exclusions and assumptions, and ask which details still need confirmation before comparing totals.

Can the work be phased or scheduled outside weekdays?

Work can be phased, and evening or weekend work can be agreed for an individual project. Discuss the preferred sequence, access and when rooms or services will be needed at the site visit. Changes or additional costs are agreed before extra work begins.
