Extensions - Short Lane, Billericay CM11

This dilapidated house was purchased by a regular client of ours, with the intention of renovating, extending and then selling it on. Through large side and rear extensions, that were very much pushed to the limits in terms of planning permission, we managed to more than double the floor area of the house. The project went very smoothly, although In a stroke of bad luck it transpired that a public sewer passed down the side of the property, and it could not be built over, so Humphreys and Sons achieved the necessary permissions for diverting the sewer around the extensions. The large increase in floor area, combined with the extensive renovation and re-landscaping works, yielded a very healthy profit for our client from this successful project. Humphrey and Sons produced all drawings and designs, planning permission, building regulations, pubic sewer permissions, and provided technical advise throughout the build.

Client Testimonial

“Humphreys and Sons provided a great service with the planning and design for our extensions project, handling all aspects of the planning permission and building control process. They explained every step of the process and their rationale for the design decisions they took, maximising the space we were able to get out of the house with some significant extensions and an internal re-model. We more than doubled the floor area of the house! During the build we used his services on an as-needed basis at key stages and he worked in-step with our builders to advise on important decisions. We were very happy with the service provided and very happy with the layout and space that we now have!”
