More space, without leaving Leyland
Leyland’s a big town with every kind of house in it, from older terraces and semis to newer estates. What most of them have in common is that, sooner or later, a growing family wants more out of them.
So before you start looking at bigger houses, have a look at what yours could do. A single storey extension for a kitchen the family fits in. A knock through that turns two small rooms into one good one. A loft or garage turned into the bedroom or office you’re short of. Each one adds space and value to a house you already own, and you get to stay put.
Planning in Leyland
Leyland is in South Ribble, so planning goes to South Ribble Borough Council. Plenty of single storey rear extensions are permitted development and don’t need a full application, but they still need Building Regulations approval. We’ll check your house on the site visit.
What we do in Leyland
One family-run team for the whole job, from the first visit through to handover.
Work like this
Three of our builds. The full stories go up as Natasha’s photographs come in.
A 1950s semi, opened up and renovated top to bottom
Stripped right back, the downstairs opened up and rebuilt as a bright family home, with carpentry made for it room by room.

A single-storey kitchen extension, matched brick for brick
The whole point was that you can’t tell where the original house stops and the extension starts.

The local bits people ask us before they ring.
Do you cover all of Leyland?
Yes. Leyland is under four miles from our base in Chorley.
Which council deals with planning in Leyland?
South Ribble Borough Council.
Is it worth extending rather than moving?
For a lot of families, yes. Moving costs stamp duty, legal fees and agents’ fees, none of which add any space. An extension’s cost stays in your house. We’ll give you an honest view on the site visit.
