Hello Mumsnetters,
I have recently obtained a quotation for some extension work on my property and would like to understand if this a reasonable price as a I have not done this before. The extension is a ground floor rear and side extension to create an open plan kitchen-dinner.
I am located in the south east.
Firstly, I have been quoted approximately £99K for an approximately 55m2 ground floor extension. The work will include:
- the masonry shell stage which includes all structural and external works to achieve a weatherproof shell and
- the first fix stage which includes internal structural and service installations before plastering
NOTE: NOT included is plastering, kitchen fitting, floor finishes, second fix electrical/plumbing, or painting
Secondly, I have been quoted approximately £47K for an approximately 25m2 loft extension. The work will include:
- The masonry shell stage including all structural and external work necessary to create a watertight, weatherproof loft structure
- the first fix stage plumbing, electrics, studwork, staircase installation etc ...all internal set up before finishing works begin
NOTE: Not included is second fix, plastering, bathroom tiling or sanitaryware installation
Also, how much more do you think I might need to take the works to completion assuming a mid-range finish?
Thank you for any responses.
