House Extension Builders in Kent

Single-storey, double-storey, rear and side extensions built by an experienced Kent construction team.

Home Extensions Across Kent

EasyBuild UK is an experienced extension builder working across Kent, delivering single-storey, double-storey, rear and side extensions. We can undertake the major structural stages from groundworks and foundations through to structural steelwork, walls, floors, roofing, windows and doors.

Whether you are looking for a complete extension build or a structural shell ready for your own internal trades, we can tailor the scope around your project and drawings.

Our focus is on getting the structure right from the beginning — providing a strong, accurately built extension that is ready for the next stage of construction.

Types of Home Extensions We Build

Single-Storey Extensions

Single-storey extensions are a practical way to create larger kitchens, dining areas, family rooms and open-plan living spaces. We can undertake the structural build from foundations and steelwork through to walls, roofing and a watertight structure.

Rear & Side Extensions

Rear and side extensions can transform the layout of an existing property and make better use of available land. We build extensions around architectural drawings and structural engineer specifications.

Double-Storey Extensions

A double-storey extension can add significant living space while making efficient use of the footprint. EasyBuild can undertake the structural construction of both floors, including steelwork, floor structures and roofing.

Extension Shell Builds

Our shell-build option takes your extension through the major structural stages to a secure, watertight shell, allowing you to manage the internal trades and finishes separately.

How We Build Your Extension

Every extension is different, but the structural build normally follows a clear sequence. EasyBuild can manage these critical stages from the initial groundwork through to a secure, watertight shell ready for internal trades and finishes.

01 - Groundworks & Foundations

We begin with the groundwork required for the extension, including excavation, foundations, drainage alterations where required and preparation of the new floor structure.

02 - Structural Steelwork

Structural steels are installed in accordance with the structural engineer's drawings and specifications, including beams required for new openings, knock-throughs and supporting the new extension.

03 - Walls & Structural Frame

We construct the external and internal structural walls using the system specified for the project, including traditional masonry, timber frame or other approved construction methods.

04 - Floors & Roof Construction

Floor structures and roof construction are completed to the project drawings, including structural timbers, insulation zones, roof coverings and the required weatherproofing details.

05 - Windows & External Doors

Once the main structure is complete, windows and external doors can be installed to close the building and protect the new extension from the weather.

06 - Secure Watertight Shell

The shell stage leaves the main structural construction complete and the extension secure and weather-protected, ready for first-fix services, insulation, plastering and internal finishes.

Extension Shell Builds in Kent

For homeowners who want to control the internal stages of their project, EasyBuild offers a dedicated extension shell-build service across Kent.

We can take the project through the major structural stages, including groundwork, foundations, walls, structural steelwork, floors, roofing, windows and external doors.

The result is a secure, watertight shell ready for first-fix services, insulation, plastering and internal finishes.

A shell-build approach can be particularly useful for homeowners who want to manage their own electricians, plumbers, kitchens or finishes while leaving the critical structural construction to an experienced building team.

House Extension FAQs

How much does a house extension cost in Kent?

The cost of an extension depends on its size, specification, structural requirements, access and the level of finish required. Once we have architectural drawings and structural information, EasyBuild can review the proposed work and prepare a more accurate estimate.

Do you build extension shells only?

Yes. EasyBuild can construct an extension through the main structural stages to a secure, watertight shell, allowing the homeowner to organise first-fix services, plastering, kitchens, bathrooms and internal finishes separately.

Can EasyBuild install the structural steelwork?

Yes. We install structural steelwork for extensions, knock-throughs and load-bearing alterations in accordance with structural engineer drawings and specifications.

Do I need drawings before contacting you?

Not necessarily. We are happy to discuss projects at an early stage. However, architectural drawings and structural calculations are normally required before a detailed construction price can be prepared.

Which areas of Kent do you cover?

EasyBuild undertakes building projects across Kent, including Ramsgate, Broadstairs, Whitstable, Sandwich, Herne Bay and surrounding areas.
