When considering a house extension project, the allure of glazed structures cannot be overlooked. They not only provide extra space but also create a seamless connection between your indoor living areas and the vibrant outdoors. Imagine a stunning new kitchen or a utility room bathed in natural light, perfect for entertaining members of your household.
Gone are the days of conventional PVCu conservatories. Residents of South Devon now have access to cutting-edge structural glazing, allowing for the creation of entire glass rooms. This innovative approach transforms even the darkest corners of your existing property, making it feel more spacious and inviting.
When planning your new addition, it’s essential to consider the types of house extensions available, such as single-storey extensions, side extensions, or even wraparound extensions. For most homeowners, these options fall under permitted development rights, meaning they often don’t require a full planning application. However, for projects in conservation areas or involving listed buildings, it’s crucial to check local regulations regarding listed building consent and prior approval.
A side return extension or a flat roof extension can provide a practical solution while also ensuring high standards of design. Bifold doors are a great option for opening up spaces to enjoy solar gain and natural light, providing a harmonious flow between your indoor and outdoor areas. Additionally, structural calculations should be considered to guarantee the integrity of your building work.
Engaging a project manager can ensure that your house extension project runs smoothly and efficiently, delivering your new room in a fraction of the time you might expect. With their expertise, you can navigate the complexities of planning permission and ensure compliance with any shared wall agreements, particularly in terraced houses.
Incorporating a glazed extension not only offers practical benefits but also adds significant value to your property. Consulting with a local estate agent can provide insights into the potential returns on investment from various extension ideas, helping you make informed decisions about your renovation project.
Get a quoteThe thought may have never crossed your mind, but it’s actually important to know there’s a limit to the amount of glass you can have as part of an extension. Part L of the Building Regulations dictates that the total area of the openings or glazed elements of an extension should take up no more space than 25% of the extension’s floor area. Extensions that exceed this ratio are known as an ‘over-glazed extension’ and when this happens they can be rejected or building control may request justification for the over-glazing. There are many ways to get an over-glazed extension accepted.
Conventionally, an extension is viewed as added floor space to a home whilst a conservatory is seen as a completely separate room that has limited uses. Over time, however, the lines have begun to blur and people may see this comparison as outdated as conservatory design has improved so much that they can be seen as a great way to add value and space to your home.
