We’ve seen plenty of homeowners go through the extension & renovation process — and here are three common mistakes to watch out for:
Not setting a clear budget & priorities. If you don’t know what you can afford — and what really matters to you — it’s easy to get carried away or disappointed.
Not checking planning & property constraints early. Things like listed status, conservation areas, shared access, and boundaries can affect what’s possible.
Choosing the cheapest quote without asking questions. If it sounds too good to be true, it often is. Look for value, not just price — and make sure all quotes cover the same scope.
Avoid these, and you’ll save yourself stress, delays & unexpected costs.
