35ftx15ft 2 storeys

Any ideas ???

Building onto a new build (5yr old)

My mate is thinking about this & reckons 35k would do it

Cheers

30-35k

Are they empty rooms... or kitchen/bathroom..????
It makes a big difference, whats the ground like for footings... does it need pileing..?? what are the walls to be.... rendered, or brick??? so many things make a big difference.,.... i'm currently involved in two house extensions and both are over 100k..... and one of them is only single storey, three rooms... plus changing the existing interior a bit aswell.... you don't get a lot for 35k these days.,....!!!

He want one big bedroom with ensuite downstairs with a utilty coming off the main kitchen. Upstairs 2 bedrooms with a jack an jill between them. Walls to be brick & ground is stable.

Certainly doesn't sound like 35k to me.. best get local quotes...!!

Thanks for the reply.

He is going to go for local quotes, i was just being nosey too see if he could do it for 35k.

Thanks again

If you are going for local quotes, make sure you get references of previous work and also go and speak to the references, get the reference straight from the horses mouth and you might get a chance to see previous workmanship.
Remember you would not give yourself a bad reference;)
Too many cowboy builders out there:thumb:
good luck

You can't get a 35 x15ft two storey extension inclusive of windows, heating, electrics, decoration, plumbing, heating, fitting of bathrooms for £35k can you????? If so I must be asking the wrong people for quotes

Acko, could you tell me what a single storey 12x18ft extension would cost approx

whats you price per brick / course or block?

David

whats you price per brick / course or block?

David

Is that question to me?

acko Im in York , Im a Plasterer by trade, I have had my own small building firm for 26 years , I have allways employed min 5 men over the years , and YES i could do the full job above for said price , >> If it was Local to ME , all the best mate , Alan.

Live near to York, and our 2 story extension (7.5m x 5m) cost roughly £40k fully finished, but that had loads of problems.

Awkward neighbours, so had to build overhand.
Bricks had to match the 1850 originals (£500 per thousand)
Need a raft as the base, due to poor ground.
Old part of the house needed fully tanking
Slate had to match the original part of the house, ie natural slate
Fully plastered, and fitted out.
Extension covered 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom upstairs, 1 kitchen diner, 1 utility room, and one downstairs showeroom and WC.

Granted we did quite a bit of the internals ourselves, but i still thought it was cheap.

We had a 2 story extension built 3 years ago, 21ft x 12ft lounge, plus upstairs bedroom and en-suite for around 28K. Flooring, furniture, paint and soft furnishings pushed the cost up though, just painting and installing the skirting boards this weekend.......

I guess 35-40K would be about right.

ok can someone tell me approx what a single storey extension at the back of my house 12x18 would cost(at Lodon prices)

Anyone?

whats you price per brick / course or block?

David


david if that question was to me the prices around the grimsby area are

£350 to £400 per thousand bricks then day rate @ £15per hour for dentol work. Up the gable ends etc...........

the price for block work is £1 per block or £1.30 if pointed.

So roll on the good weather ;)

hope this helps

No probs m8, but pretend I lived in Grimsby, how much for the 12x18 rear single storey? How much would the fully finished product cost?
