Our wraparound extension offers many benefits over a traditional rear extension. It takes up less green space and utilizes unused side alleyways. This type of extension adds kitchen space, accommodates new rooms, increases natural light, and connects to the garden with customisable design options.

Our hip-to-gable loft conversion is a great option for semi-detached or detached homes with a hipped roof, which has sloping sides in addition to the front and back slopes. This conversion extends the roofline, creating a spacious attic that can be made into a beautiful, functional room.
Our Dormer loft conversions can create a box-like extension on your roof, replacing the sloping section with vertical walls and flat ceilings. The dormer is built around a stud frame and is usually covered with tiles to blend well with your existing roof. This style of conversion is versatile, fitting well with most homes. Richway’s dormer loft conversion also brings in an abundance of natural light and fresh air through large windows.
1. What’s a Rear Extension?
A rear extension extends your home out from the back. It’s a great option for properties that don’t have a side return or for detached homes. Adding a rear extension can give you more living space, often creating a relaxing dining or living area to make your home more spacious and comfortable.
2. What’s the most budget-friendly way to convert a loft?
If you’re looking to save money, a roof light conversion is your best bet. This option involves making small changes to your existing roof space—just adding insulation, plumbing, heating, a staircase, and some finishing touches like plastering and decoration. It’s an affordable way to make the most of your loft without breaking the bank.
3. Is planning permission required for a rear extension?
Adding a rear extension can give you extra space and increase your home’s value. However, whether you need planning permission depends on whether your plans follow the local guidelines. If your extension doesn’t meet the rules set by the planning committee, you’ll need to apply for permission before moving forward. It’s a good idea to check the requirements first to avoid any surprises.
4. Is a loft conversion the right choice?
A loft conversion is an affordable way to add space to your home, making it an excellent option if you’re looking to stay within a budget. However, if you need a lot more space, like extra bedrooms or a larger living area, a traditional extension might be the better choice.
