Side return extension - small side return extension in London

Side return extension

Make the most of that unused side return with an extension that revolutionises the way you live. Turn an unutilised area into a useful place without eating into your outdoor greenery. Always wanted a big, open-plan kitchen diner? Seamless connection into the garden? It’s yours. And you don’t have to move house. By adding extra square footage to your property, you benefit from greater living space and add value should you eventually decide to sell.

Average cost of side return extension

From £40,000

Naturally, the best way to keep prices down is restricting the amount of building work. So, how can you calculate an approximate total for your small side return extension cost?

Work out how many square metres you want to add

Multiply that figure by £1,500-£2,500

This range in price is down to different finishes, with a high-spec costing more.

Side return extension plans

When thinking about the project, you’ll want to consider various aspects:

Your budget
Preferred timeframe
Ideal size
Purpose of new space
Which construction company

Your plans should include a timeline of what you want to happen and when. Bear in mind that the best building firms might have a longer lead time, but quality is typically worth the wait. Ask around for recommendations, research companies nearby, and contact your favourites to ask for advice and a quote.

Factors to take into consideration

It’s exciting to imagine a whole new space for your home, but it can also be daunting. That’s why it’s worth taking time to think about what you want to achieve, and how to get the desired result.

By putting in the legwork with your plans, you’ll save time and money in the long-run.

Consult this list of goals, and the methods for reaching each outcome:

More light: extra glass, big windows, bifold doors, roof lanterns
More space: supporting beams/posts instead of load-bearing walls
More inside/outside integration: bifolds, patios, step-free level access
More family time: stud walls, small cosy spaces, movie room
More organisation: storage solutions, shelving, hidden cupboards, utility nooks
More ‘me’ time: creative studio, hobby workshop, quiet reading corner
More work/life separation: dedicated office, equipment storage

TESTIMONIALS

SEE WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Maidenhead

The work that Fittra did for me was a full house renovation – this did not include any new build or extension work but it did include moving a number of internal load bearing walls and extending external openings to install large sliding doors. The work was reasonably complex structurally as the upper floor is steel beam and concrete block construction. Externally all windows and doors were changed, guttering and fascias were changed and a new tiled deck constructed to give an outside/inside feel. Internally, walls were moved, new door openings created or widened to give a modern open plan look and feel.Read More

Ealing

“Fittra completed a rear extension, loft conversion and full refurbishment of our house in Ealing late last year. This included new bathrooms, heating system (including underfloor heating), electrics and plumbing. When obtaining quotes, Fittra’s prices were in the middle of the three companies who came back to us with costs, but the fact that it was fully itemised (unlike the other costs we received) gave us piece of mind that we knew exactly what we were getting for our money. “Read More

“Can’t speak highly enough of Fittra and the job they did. They completed a rear extension, side return and loft extension and pretty much a full refurbishment of our house and garden in SW London. They not only did an incredible job, but they were also great to work with too. Vadym and Ivan’s team were incredibly efficient and hardworking and really amenable and collaborative. I have recommended them to a few friends subsequently, and will continue to do so.”

Hanwell, New build

Team at Fittra possesses all the attributes necessary to be an excellent contractor: they know their market extremely well; they are diligent, responsive, and yet very understanding with their clients. They are very professional and offer cost saving alternatives when possible. The thing that has impressed me the most is the professionalism, knowledge and helpfulness of all the workers.

“We did our house fully renovation last year July 2019 – December 2019 with Fittra. We are very pleased with the results – our new kitchen (rear extension with lantern roof light), loft conversion, hardwood flooring, underfloor heating, tiling and etc.. Ivan and his team are truly professional. They finished the job with timely manner and customer satisfaction. Their breakdown quotes are easy to understand and easy to work with. We are highly recommended for Ivan, Igor and the team. Great job!!!”
