Types of House Extension We Build in Hinckley
Single-Storey Extensions
The most popular choice for Hinckley homeowners looking to add a larger kitchen, open-plan living area, or ground-floor utility space. We handle everything: foundations, brickwork, roofing, windows, electrics, plumbing, plastering, and decoration.
Double-Storey Extensions
Double-storey extensions give you the maximum amount of additional space for your investment. Ideal for adding a bedroom and en-suite above a kitchen extension, or for creating a substantial side extension with rooms on both floors.
Side Return Extensions
If your property has an unused side passage or return, we can help you reclaim that space and incorporate it into your ground floor. Common in Victorian and Edwardian terraces across Hinckley.
Wrap-Around Extensions
For homeowners who want to make a bold statement, a wrap-around extension combines a rear and side extension to create one large, flowing space. Perfect for open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas.
Over-Garage Extensions
If you have an existing garage, building above it is one of the most efficient ways to add a bedroom or additional room. We manage the structural assessment, design, and build.

Planning Permission for Extensions in Hinckley
Many extensions in Hinckley can be built under Permitted Development Rights, meaning no formal planning permission is required. However, this depends on your property type, location, and the size of the extension.
As part of our initial consultation, we’ll advise you on whether your project requires planning permission and, if so, help you navigate that process. All our work is completed in full compliance with current building regulations.

Areas We Cover Around Hinckley
As well as Hinckley town centre, we regularly build extensions in Burbage, Barwell, Earl Shilton, Sapcote, Sketchley and the surrounding villages.

Recent Project Near Hinckley
We recently carried out major structural alterations on a property in the Hinckley area — removing load-bearing walls and reconfiguring the ground floor to open up the living space, with all steelwork designed and signed off by a structural engineer and building control. It is a good example of the heavier structural work we self-deliver rather than subcontract out.
| Extension type | Typical size | 2026 price range (excl. VAT) |
|---|---|---|
| Single-storey side / side return | 8–15 m² | £18,000–£42,000 |
| Single-storey rear | 18–28 m² | £36,000–£72,000 |
| Double-storey rear | 30–45 m² | £85,000–£140,000 |
| Wraparound (rear + side) | 35–55 m² | £90,000–£200,000+ |
