Our Home Extension Process

At Adlington Homes, we’ve refined our home extension process to ensure a seamless and stress-free experience for our clients. Our comprehensive approach begins with a thorough consultation, where we carefully assess your goals and your home’s potential. This initial step lays the foundation for our design phase, during which our expert team creates an extension plan that harmoniously blends with your existing architecture.

With approvals in place, our skilled tradespeople commence the construction phase, meticulously building your new addition to the highest standards. Throughout the project, our team provides continuous coordination, overseeing every aspect from start to finish. Finally, we apply the finishing touches, incorporating features and finishes that seamlessly integrate the new extension with your existing home.
