Extension Specialists in Milton Keynes
Bespoke single storey, double storey, rear and kitchen extensions — designed, engineered, built and finished by one local team
Crownhill Building Services are extension specialists in Milton Keynes. Home extensions are the projects we have built more of than anything else — hundreds of them across the city's estates and villages — and every one is designed, engineered and constructed by our own team in traditional brick and block.
Choosing extension specialists rather than a general contractor matters more than most homeowners realise. An extension changes the structure of your home: the original rear or side wall comes out, new foundations have to tie into old ones, steelwork carries loads that were never there before, and the new roof has to meet the existing one without ever leaking. Getting these details right is what separates an extension that looks like it was always part of the house from one that plainly was not.
With over 20 years in the building trade and more than 500 completed projects, we know Milton Keynes housing stock inside out — the 1970s and 80s grid-square estates, the older village properties in places like Stony Stratford, Newport Pagnell and Olney, and the modern developments around Broughton, Brooklands and Tattenhoe. We know which designs work on each type of property, what the local planning officers will and won't accept, and what a realistic budget looks like before a single drawing is produced.
Home Extension Builders for Every Type of Project
As extension builders in Milton Keynes we cover the full range of extension work, including:
- Single storey extensions — rear, side and wrap-around ground floor extensions, often achievable under permitted development
- Double storey extensions — bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs with living space below, on the same footprint as a single storey build
- Rear extensions — our most popular project, opening the back of the house into the garden with bi-fold or sliding doors
- Kitchen extensions — open-plan kitchen-diners with the kitchen itself fitted as part of the build
- Side extensions and infills — making use of wasted space alongside the house or between the house and garage
Everything Included in One Package
Every extension we build is delivered as a single, fully managed package. You deal with one company and one fixed price quote, and we take care of:
- Design and architectural drawings — planning drawings and full construction drawings produced in-house
- Structural engineering — steel beam and foundation calculations for Building Control
- Planning and permitted development — advice on the best route, and we prepare and submit any planning or prior approval application
- Building Control — registration, every site inspection and your completion certificate at the end
- Groundworks and foundations — excavation, drainage and concrete, tied into your existing structure
- Brickwork, blockwork and steelwork — traditional masonry construction with matched facing bricks
- Roofing — pitched or flat roofs, roof lights and lanterns
- Electrics, plumbing and heating — first and second fix, including underfloor heating where wanted
- Plastering, tiling and decorating — finished ready to use, with kitchens and bathrooms fitted where the design calls for them
Plastering, electrics, plumbing, tiling and decorating are never left for you to arrange separately. They are part of the job, coordinated by us, and covered by the same 12 month parts and labour warranty as the rest of the build.
Why Milton Keynes Homeowners Choose Us for Their Extension
We build bespoke extensions, not off-the-shelf boxes. Every design starts with how you actually use your home and what you want the new space to do, and we build in traditional masonry so the finished extension is indistinguishable from the original house. We are equally at home with double storey and structurally complex projects as we are with a straightforward rear extension.
Our quotes are fixed price and given in writing. We respond to every enquiry within 48 hours, carry public liability insurance up to £2 million, and back every project with a 12 month parts and labour warranty. Most of our work comes from recommendations and repeat customers, and you can hear directly from them in our unscripted customer videos.
