I know this doesn’t belong in this section but for traffic….im very unhappy in the small bungalow I have. But, it’s in a great location. Other bungalows on a the adjoining street, I’m in a cul de sac, have made them into houses.

If I got planning permission, what kind of money are we talking to go from a bungalow to a house and render it?

No I want to add another level to turn into a house from a bungalow

Which is where you would need a professional to actually see if this is doable and to quote. I am not sure how it works but surely it depends on the building structure and how they would build onto this. I have only seen people do loft conversions, extensions over garages or adding on to the building by building to the side and taking over some of the garden.
A profession would be able to talk you through the options as I also imagine costs vary depending on area.
If you say others in your street have done it, why not ask one of them for the name of the builders they used?

It all depends what you want doing. Can you build into the loft? Would you just want an extension over the garage?
I think you would need a professional to come out and give quotes.

A bungalow is a house, OP, just a single-storey one. Not possible to estimate costs of building works without knowing far more about size etc.

Would this help?
