I'm trying to work out a realistic cost of our extension. We have a 1930's 3 bed semi and we're hoping to have a single story extension at the back of the house and a double story at the side.
The quantity surveyor has sent through a comprehensive breakdown of the costs. It seems to cover most things, apart from kitchens, bathrooms & decorations.
I was wondering if anyone had any hidden costs that you hadn't been prepared for. Eg portaloos, digging deeper foundations etc and how much extra it cost you?
Thank you!
