Extend Your Family Space,
Without Leaving the Neighbourhood

Fixed-Fee Home Extensions in East Kilbride, Bearsden, Newton Mearns, Milngavie and beyond.

Need more room for a growing family, but not ready to move? Our home extension service helps you add space with minimal disruption and maximum value.

We offer clear, fixed-fee packages that cover everything from planning permission to building warrants. With expert design, council coordination, and guidance at every step, you can create an open plan kitchen, playroom, or home office, without the usual headaches.

Build smarter. Stay rooted. Extend with ease.

Planning Permission Without the Headache

We specialise in navigating conservation area planning and listed building consent for tenements, townhouses, and period homes. Whether you're opening up a flat or adapting a listed property, our architects streamline the process, delivering clear design guidance, fast-tracked approvals, and fixed fees from £1,500.

No hidden costs. No confusion. Just confident planning, from Partick to Pollokshields.
