I'm just looking for some advice on the cost of a house extension. I know it'll be hard for people to answer this without seeing the plans, but I'm close to signing a contract with a building firm and I'm getting cold feet about the cost- it just seems so expensive!
We have a 1930s semi, and we're planning a double side extension, and at the back a part single and part double extension (extending by 3m at the back and 2m at the side). We're also remodelling inside and having 3 bathrooms & underfloor heating on the ground floor.
I've had 3 quotations- (£150, £180 & £210k) although with the cheaper quote it was quite basic so I think there will be lots of extras. I'm thinking of going with the £180k quotation and with extras such as flooring, kitchen I'm hoping to go no further than £215k.
Is this reasonable? I'm wondering if ive picked the wrong builders to get quotes from and have chosen expensive ones?! The builder I like is holding a slot in Feb for us but needs us to give him an answer asap.
Thank you!
