Types of House Extensions
We design and build various property extensions to meet your unique requirements:
Single-Storey Extensions
- These are perfect for enhancing kitchen or living spaces, often incorporating popular features like bi-fold doors and skylights.
Double-Storey Extensions
- Add significant living and sleeping space, making them ideal for growing families or those seeking to maximise their property’s potential.
Wraparound Extensions
- These combine side and rear extensions, offering unmatched versatility and space optimisation.
Side-Return Extensions
- Ideal for Victorian and Edwardian homes, utilising the narrow space at the side of your property.
Each extension is tailored to complement an existing home in or around Weston-super-Mare, Burnham-on-Sea or Clevedon, all while maximising functionality.


Do I Require Planning Permission?
Whether or not you need planning permission for your house extension depends on its size and location. In many cases, smaller single-storey extensions fall under permitted development rights, meaning formal approval is not necessary. However, larger or more complex designs, such as a double-storey extension, wraparound extension, or one in a conservation area, will often require permission.
P&M Carpentry & Building will simplify the process:
- Assessing your project for compliance with local regulations.
- Assisting with planning applications and liaising with local authorities in Weston-super-Mare, Burnham-on-Sea, and Clevedon.
- Partnering with trusted architects and surveyors to create plans that meet both your vision and legal requirements.
More than just your local builder, we help handle the administrative aspects so you can focus on enjoying your new space.
FAQs – House Extensions
The timeframe depends on the project’s size and complexity. A straightforward single-storey extension may take around 8–12 weeks, while larger or double-storey extensions can take several months. P&M Carpentry & Building provides a clear schedule at the start of the project and manages each stage in-house, from groundworks to final decorating. This coordinated approach helps keep the build running smoothly and reduces delays caused by multiple contractors.
Yes. We focus on creating extensions that blend naturally with the original property. This includes matching brickwork, rooflines, window styles, and internal finishes wherever possible. The aim is to make the extension look like it has always been part of the home, both inside and out, rather than an obvious add-on. Careful planning and experienced craftsmanship ensure a seamless finish.
P&M offers a full-service approach, managing every stage of the extension. This includes groundworks, structural construction, roofing, plumbing, electrics, insulation, and interior finishing. By overseeing the whole project, the team maintains consistent quality and clear communication throughout. Clients benefit from having a single, reliable point of contact rather than coordinating multiple trades themselves.
Many homeowners choose extensions to create larger kitchens, open-plan living areas, additional bedrooms, or dedicated home offices. P&M Carpentry & Building works closely with each client to design a space that suits their lifestyle, whether that means a family-focused kitchen extension, a quiet workspace, or extra room for a growing household. Each project is tailored to the property and the client’s needs.
