Single Storey Extension 7 x 3.5 metres time lapse foundation up

Built under permitted development and building regulations.

Single storey rear extension of bricks and tiles on 1m foundations to replace a poorly built conservatory which had 20cm of foundations. We considered a solid roof conversion but the rest of the structure wasn't with the investment.

Thanks to Moss Carpentry main builder, in Cambridgeshire area.

Started 10th May 2019, and finished 11th June 2019.

Time lapse photography filmed using old Nexus 5 and Framelapse app.

I had one built exactly like this 7X4, and made it into a living room, money well spent, to include electrics, and a gas fire with flu, fully completed it cost £28K in 2014, in West Yorkshire

Insulation meant to be between two layers of viscreen

Well done. How much would this cost in a current market (goods gone up significantly) and where abouts are you based please?

[marekxs]

what's the reason you left the open space in the foundation on the right hand side 0:40-1:30? Drainage?

I prefer the designed of the old extension

Considering extending my kitchen been watching videos on YouTube and realised every video people in the comments find flaws in the work...its put me off and maybe better to save up and move

[easywatching]

Perfect 👌 thanks that video is just what I was looking for, can you please give me a ball park figure of the cost finding it very hard to find price examples.

Might be a stupid question but when pouring the concrete into the foundation does it self level??

[ThatLeeNoble]

You left all that brick dust under the roof tiles. I hate it when trades are messy like this. Same with bathroom fitters who sweep all their mess under the bath before putting the bath panel on.

Pity there's no guttering to direct rain water off the extension roof.

[jackellis]

Looks fab. Out if interest how much was something like this cost wise roughly if you don’t mind? It’s very similar to what we would like to have.

Good job on the build, but can't say I like the design of it, like somebody else said in the comments a big bifold door or such in place of the 3 windows would have made the space feel bigger and let way more light in.

Great job guys how long did it take until a internal plastered finish.?

[hondafpv]

I see you have said this costs about 30k. Is this including the demolition? If so, what is the cost without it. Thank you.

[NIIS]

What was the appropriate cost of an extension this size?

[nachvidal]

Question: When they pour the foundations, a piece of wood is propped up to prevent it completely filling in the trench. Once block/brick laying commences, what appears to be a concrete lintel is used in the gap...is this safe for weight bearing purposes? Also what could that gap be used for?

[Spark.]

I did wonder about the DPM sitting directly on the type than that, it all seemed fine.

I’m not a I’m a electrician, so probably have no clue! Lol! But it looks much better than some of the horror’s I’ve seen!
