The extra space you’ve been dreaming of can be established with the installation of a stunning Clearview extension.

Home Office Extension

At Clearview, we’d be delighted to help you to design the perfect office space. Lockdown has taught us all that perching on the edge of the dining table or hiding upstairs in the bedroom (or even the garden shed!) isn’t ideal! Our design experts will work with you to create a room with the perfect mix of light, space, and garden views.

Learn more about or home extensions

Choosing to extend your home is a big decision, and it’s expected that you’ll have lots of questions around planning permission, extension styles and options. We’re here to help answer your questions about home extensions and help you create your perfect living space. If you’d like to discuss your project why not visit our showroom and speak to an advisor today.

Do you need planning permission for an extension?

The rules around planning permission and extensions.

Under your Permitted Development Rights, you could well be able to extend your home without the need for the submission of a planning application to your local authority.

Planning laws have been relaxed in recent years and this is partly to give householders greater freedom to extend their properties without as much red tape involved. But you mustn’t assume that an extension complies with Permitted Development Rights as it may prove a costly mistake.

Unless you want something that exceeds the size limits of a Permitted Development and are happy to go through the planning application process, we will construct an extension that complies with the relevant conditions.

What is the maximum extension you can build without planning permission?

Permitted development rules allow extensions of up to six or eight metres.

How big you can go with your extension for it to be categorised as a Permitted Development and not require planning permission will depend on your house type.

Home extensions and conservatories can be up to six metres, but this increases to eight metres if you reside in a detached property.

Other limits must be obeyed though to keep within the rules, such as the extension not exceeding the height of the top of your roof and that no more than 50% of the land around the house can be covered by other buildings. A full breakdown of the guidelines will be explained to you by an advisor.

How much value will an extension add to my home?

There’s so much value to be gained from extending.

It’s difficult to give you an exact figure as to how much value an extension will add to your home as it depends on so many variables, including the type of extension you have installed, its size, how it functions, where your house is located etc.

However, if you want some kind of indication, Nationwide suggests that adding an extension to an average three-bedroom house can raise its sales value by 23%.

Conducting some research beforehand is the best method of gaining an accurate figure of how much value an extension will potentially add. Speak to a few housing experts, get your house valued by one or two of them prior to any extension being built, and then inquire as to how much its value will potentially rise after extending.

Should I add an extension to my home?

Extending is never a bad idea.

To extend or not to extend is very much a personal choice, but if you crave more space and don’t have the urge or money to move, why wouldn’t you want to do it?

An extension will reinvigorate your house and provide you with room to do so much more within it, like if you need an office area to remotely work from or you’ve added to your family and want a playroom.

Extending your house could also be a way of bringing the outdoors in if you were to have bi-folding doors, or some other glass door, assimilated into any extension to open the property into the garden.

Are extensions worth it for homes in Cheshire & Lancashire?

Is an extension worth it? You bet it is!

When you look into the pros and cons of extending, the pros heavily outnumber the cons in most circumstances. It’s such a cost-effective home enhancement for the possible financial gains it will bring if you ever come to sell your house – the return on investment can be great.

Any extension bought from Clearview will be well-executed in design and can be configured and accessorised however you want it to be. So, it will be a highly desirable, personalised structure that has your imprint all over it.

Combine your new extension with our fantastic feature doors so you can enjoy the amazing views across Cheshire & Lancashire from the comfort of your own home.

Having Clearview oversee the building of an extension also assures you of an undisruptive and stress-free project and installation. We’ll be there every step of the way so you get an extension that you’ll enjoy every day

How much will an extension from Clearview cost?

We need to talk before giving you an accurate costing for an extension.

As much as we know you will be eager to discover the cost of one of our fabulous home extensions, it’s very hard to provide an accurate price without us knowing about your property and your requirements for the extension.

Speculating a cost would be unfair on you and total guesswork on our part when we have no knowledge of how big the build will be and how much floor space it will cover, the complexity of it, any finishing elements etc.

So, let’s sit down and discuss everything together, and once we have gathered all the information we need from you, we’ll be able to calculate a final price, with no hidden charges.

Why should I extend my home with Clearview?

Clearview is the North West’s leading extension specialist.

Extensions designed and built by Clearview are to be found all around the region, and we’re the most famous name for home improvements in the counties of Cheshire and Lancashire.

Can we be trusted? The fact that we are members of the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) tells you that you can have total faith in our brilliant team, from those working on reception who greet you when you visit a showroom to the installers who orchestrate the building of the structure. Only elite companies within the industry attain GGF membership.

When you appoint Clearview for a home extension installation, everything is efficiently managed by advisors with colossal product, planning, and provincial knowledge and awareness.

You can also ‘try-before-you-buy’ in any of our three sensational home improvement locations – based in Nantwich, Preston, and Warrington – where we have several of our extensions elegantly setup for you to sit in and explore.

What is the process for getting an extension installed?

Home extension installations involve a series of steps.

Finding a reliable home extension installer is the first vital step to take and you’ve found one in Clearview, who will ably guide you through the required process.

We’ll start things with a design appointment so that you can explain your motivation for investing in an extension, what type of extension you visualise having, how you need it to function, tell us what budget you have etc., and we can use our experience and software to create an extension that meets the brief and comes in at a cost you can afford.

Following this meeting, we should have some idea of whether planning permission will need to be obtained, and if it does, proceed with the relevant arrangements.

Once the installation can go ahead, we’ll provide a timescale of the work so that you know when to expect the extension to be completed.

During the course of the project, our fitters will strive to cause as little disruption as they can so you can live your home life normally.

Where can I see extensions before I order one?

Our showrooms have a perfect showcase of extensions. Come and be inspired!

Wherever you live in the North West, you don’t have to travel far to encounter our extensions, exhibited inside the luxurious environments of our Nantwich, Preston, and Warrington showrooms.

You may discover extension styles that you didn’t know existed or seeing a certain extension could unlock ideas that would never have sprung to mind.
Do a solo viewing of the different extensions or receive some personal attention and beckon an advisor to give you a tour of them whilst pointing out their main features.

If you want to stick to online browsing for now, there are many case studies and galleries of extensions on our website to look at.
