“The Extension Company built a 5m single storey rear extension on our Victorian terrace in Crouch End. Went down the permitted development route so no planning application needed, which they explained up front and saved us months. Kitchen-diner now opens onto the garden with sliding doors. £87k all in, matched the quote.”
Harry PopeSingle-storey rear extension, Crouch End · Google review · June 2026
“From the initial site visit onwards to my property in Barnet, we felt that the team actually listened to what we wanted. They suggested a few changes to the layout that we hadn't considered, and those changes have made a huge difference. Would definitely use again and recommend”
Ceri JenkinsBarnet · Google review · September 2026
“Used The Extension Company for a loft conversion on our semi detached in Barnet and couldn't be happier. They explained what was possible at the first visit, sorted the planning side, and gave a fixed price with no surprises at the end. The hip-to-gable and rear dormer gave us a big double bedroom with an en-suite. Tidy, professional and finished on schedule. Would recommend to anyone in North London thinking about a loft conversion.”
Billie CampbellHip-to-gable & rear dormer loft conversion, Barnet · Google review · June 2026
“We had been putting off our loft conversion for years because the whole process felt overwhelming. The team made it much easier than expected and handled the drawings, planning and build for us. We now have a lovely extra bedroom and shower room.”

“Our wrap-around extension has completely transformed the ground floor. We now have the open plan kitchen and family space we wanted without losing all of the garden. Thanks to everyone involved.”
Lesley ClarkWrap-around extension · Google review · September 2026
“Really pleased with the work from The Extension Company. We had our extension done in Hampstead and the whole experience was excellent. Great communication from start to finish, The quality of the finish is excellent and we’re really happy with the result. Would definitely recommend them if you’re thinking about an extension.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common home extension questions

How much does a house extension cost in London?

A single-storey rear extension typically runs £60,000 to £120,000+ in North London depending on size, glazing and finish. We quote a fixed, itemised figure after a free site visit — or design yours in the Extension Builder for an honest guide price in 60 seconds.

Do I need planning permission?

Many single-storey extensions fall under permitted development, so no full application is needed. Where permission is required, we design to what your council demonstrably approves and handle the whole application for you.

How long does an extension take?

Design and planning usually take 8-12 weeks, and a single-storey build typically 10-16 weeks on site. We agree a programme with you before work starts and manage it end to end.

Who actually does the building work?

The Extension Company is the extensions studio of Pine Grove Design & Build Ltd. North London projects are designed, managed and built by Pine Grove’s own team, so the company that draws your extension is the company that builds it — the job is not sold on.

Is the price really fixed?

Yes. You get a fixed, itemised figure before you sign, and the number you sign is the number you pay — it only changes if you change the specification.

What's included in your service?

Everything: design and drawings, the planning application, building control, structural engineering, the build itself and project management — one team from first sketch to handover.

Do you handle party wall agreements?

Most London extensions touch a shared wall, so yes — we advise on party wall notices early and work alongside appointed surveyors so the agreement never holds up your build.

What about building regulations?

All our designs comply with UK building regulations, and we produce the technical drawings and manage building control sign-off as part of the fixed price.

Do you do lofts and bigger projects too?

Yes — loft conversions, wrap-arounds, double-storey extensions and whole-house transformations, in North London first and across the rest of London.

When can you start?

We can usually do your free site visit within days, design starts straight after, and build slots are typically booked 6-10 weeks out. Call 020 3051 9430 to check current lead times.
