Extensions that feel like part of your home
Feel like you’ve outgrown your space, but love where you live? A home extension could be the answer. Whether you're looking for a larger kitchen, a home office, or simply more space, we’ll help you get the extra space you need, without the stress of moving. At baigent carpentry and construction, we build extensions that seamlessly integrate with the rest of your home, ensuring a cohesive look from the start.
Rear extension
A rear extension expands your home into the garden, creating space for open-plan kitchens, living areas, or dining rooms. It’s a popular option that suits most property types.
Side return extension
This extension fills in the narrow space at the side of a property, often seen in Victorian terraces. It’s perfect for widening kitchens or adding utility rooms and storage.
Wraparound extension
Combining a side return and rear extension in an L-shape, this option maximises ground floor space, ideal for large open-plan kitchen-diners or versatile family living zones.
Double-storey extension
A double-storey extension adds space across two floors, making it ideal for growing families needing extra bedrooms, bathrooms, or larger kitchens and living spaces.
Over-structure extension
This adds a new room above an existing single-storey structure, such as a garage. It’s a smart way to gain extra space without using up the garden area.
