Why choose a Kent Trading Standards checked building contractor for your house extension in Aylesford?

Never go by appearances. As reputable tradesman, we belong to professional bodies that you check. Here’s some checks you can make to verify our credentials.

No two homes are the same. Likewise, each extension project we undertake differs from the last. This is why we tailor our approach to the specific needs of your project. This ensures we cater to the unique aspects at play, such as the type of home you have, its size, access to the property, neighbouring houses, the available space in the garden and your budget. We also need to consider whether you live in a conservation area.

In addition to the nature of your home and wider premises, we design a bespoke service around your lifestyle requirements, design aspirations and overall expectations. Whether you’re in Sevenoaks or the wider Kent area, this approach allows us to produce truly fit-for-purpose results.

During the pre-construction phase, we offer permitted development advice. In short, as a homeowner, you have certain permitted development rights. If your proposed extension falls inside the stated limits, you don’t need to apply for planning permission.

Generally speaking, most single-storey property extensions that our builders construct meet permitted development criteria. Double-storey additions, however, almost always need prior approval before building work begins.

Our team recognises that the construction stage of your extension takes place in and around your home. You can rest assured, we will treat your property with the care and respect we would expect of builders in our own. This includes maintaining a clean and tidy working environment throughout.

We liaise with your local authority in Sevenoaks or any other location to schedule Building Control inspections and signoffs at the required stages of construction. As a result, our property extensions don’t only meet the highest standards of workmanship, they are also lawful and fully comply with all relevant building regulations.

In response to concerns about ‘rogue traders’ which are often highlighted in the media, a partnership of Local Authority Trading Standards Services took the ground-breaking step of putting together the Buy With Confidence Scheme. This means all checking and monitoring of business is done directly by them, not by third parties or private companies. Being a Buy With Confidence Trading Standards Approved business means

    * Criminal record checked (if going into homes)
  • We’re qualified, experienced and fully insured
  • Monitored to ensure a high level of customer service

Checkatrade is the original online directory for tradespeople. Becoming an approved and guaranteed member comes with their seal of approval. Not just anyone can join Checkatrade. All their members undertake 12 rigorous checks before they get the seal of approval – that’s why homeowners trust us.
