Kitchen Extensions
In Colton, a rear kitchen extension is one of the most effective ways to add both style and functionality to your home. Expanding this space creates the opportunity for a flowing open-plan kitchen design, more natural light, and a practical layout that suits modern living. From a cosy family hub to a modern kitchen upgrade with sleek bi-fold doors, MRJ Extensions can deliver results that perfectly match your vision.
Garage Conversion
Many garages across Colton sit unused, often acting as a dumping ground for clutter, tools, or bicycles. A garage conversion is the perfect way to turn that wasted area into a functional living space that adds both comfort and property value. At MRJ Extensions, we specialise in garage remodels and extensions that suit your needs—whether that means creating a modern home office, a children’s playroom, a private gym, or even guest accommodation.
Porch Extension
A porch addition is more than an aesthetic feature—it can improve comfort, cut down on heat loss, and increase home security. At MRJ Extensions, we deliver tailored porch extensions that fit seamlessly with properties across Colton, whether contemporary or traditional in style. From defining your home’s entryway to creating a useful spot for seating or storage, we ensure your porch is as functional as it is attractive.
Why Homeowners and Developers Choose to Extend
Extensions are more than just a construction project; they're a smart property investment. For homeowners, they provide the space needed for growing families, lifestyle upgrades, or work-from-home setups. For property developers, extensions can significantly increase the rental yield and resale value of a building.
Instead of relocating to find more space, many local residents are discovering the advantages of extending in place. It allows for complete control over design, location, and budget, while preserving community ties and school catchments.
The 4 Key Stages of Your Extension Project
- 1. Consultation & Feasibility: We start by understanding your vision and inspecting the property to confirm what’s possible based on layout, structure, and planning rules.
- 2. Design & Planning: Our architects create detailed designs and, if required, we manage the planning permission or permitted development paperwork with the local Council.
- 3. Construction Phase: All groundwork, structural work, roofing, and internal finishes are carried out by our experienced team, on time and on budget.
- 4. Final Sign-Off & Handover: Once the work is complete, we conduct a final walkthrough, ensure building control sign-off, and hand over a finished space that’s clean, safe, and ready to enjoy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need planning permission for a house extension in the UK?
Most small extensions fall under permitted development rights, meaning you may not need full planning permission. Larger projects or those in conservation areas will usually require approval from your local council.
What are permitted development rights for extensions?
Permitted development rights allow you to extend your home without applying for planning permission, provided certain size and height limits are met. Always check with your local planning authority to confirm before starting work.
How much does a house extension cost in the UK?
On average, a single-storey extension costs between £1,500–£2,500 per square metre. Prices vary depending on location, design, and the complexity of the build.
How long does a house extension take to build?
A straightforward single-storey extension may take 10–12 weeks to complete. More complex or multi-storey builds could take 4–6 months.
Can I live in my house while the extension is being built?
Yes, most people stay in their homes during the build, although there may be some disruption. Builders will often section off areas to keep the rest of the house habitable.
