4 Great House Extension Ideas

 Do you know you need more space at home?

Are you struggling to come up with house extension ideas?

Then there are a few to help give you inspiration.

1. Reconfigure your existing space during a house extension

Knocking through walls and awkward layouts can increase space and add a modern feel. While you’re at it, consider the location of doors and windows. Extra light or a more conveniently placed entrance could make a huge difference.

2. Consider a two-story extension

Building two stories rather than one is great if you’re looking for additional space and maximum value for money. This is because the average cost per square meter (m²) is reduced when you stretch the more expensive elements of roof and foundations over a bigger area.

3. A contemporary kitchen

It’s the hub of the house and most people are particular about how they want their kitchen laid out. So, why not design yours from scratch?

4. Add a conservatory or sunroom extension

Relatively inexpensive and provides a new living space that everyone can use. If you just need a bit more space because your kids have grown up, this can be the ideal solution.

For a home extension in Leeds or anywhere in the surrounding areas, get in touch.

Is 2023 the year to get that extension built?

 As the year draws to a close many of us look back at the plans we made 12 months ago and wonder why we didn’t see them through. This is particularly true of large sale projects such as homeextensions. Often, we intend to do the work ourselves, but life gets in the way. Work, shopping, kids activities and all manner of surprise events take over and the house extensions get put on hold time and again.


At JMR Construction we aim to make that extension you’ve always wanted happen, by doing the donkey work for you. If you’re looking for a house extension Leeds and wondering where you’re going to find the time to do it, then give us a call.

With over 20 years of industry experience our builders and architects are highly skilled and ready to help turn your dream into a reality. And if you want to do the finishing touches and decorate it yourself, that’s fine by us. But if you like the idea of coming home from work to find it’s all done, and you just need to have a cup of tea and appreciate it then that’s fine too.

The management of a household that is growing in a "buyer's market"

It's probably been said that in terms of house sales it's a buyer's market at the moment. Great news for first-time buyers. However, it's not as great if you're already a homeowner who is looking to expand, since you're selling one of your homes could result in less than you'd like and less than you anticipated and less than what you'd be able to get if you wait in the process of selling. If you're an expanding family and you're short on time, the odds are not at your disposal. However, there's an option that is cost-effective - home extensions.

If you're satisfied with your house, the location is ideal for school, work and all the other things you need to are doing and the sole reason to consider moving is to have more space, you may be surprised at the cost of an extension especially when you consider the cost of moving.

We are JMR Construction we specialise in house extensions in Leeds to assist you in making the most of the space that you have, and to increase the living area to accommodate the changing demands. For more information on the ways that a house extension can be the perfect solution to your expanding family, call us right now.

Thinking Of Getting an Extension? Have You Thought About An Orangery?

Orangeries used to be something for the landed gentry, not ordinary Yorkshire folk. But in recent years they have become popular with UK homeowners looking for the stability of a traditional house extension with the airiness of a conservatory.

For many years, it appeared that home extensions were limited to a slightly bigger kitchen or a porch. Those days are gone. In the modern era, the only limit is imagination.

If you in the market for home extensions in Leeds, think about the space you have at present and what would make it better for you. Imagine your home and lifestyle once the work is complete. What makes you happier? What difference has your house extension made to you and your family?

There are many reasons to get an extension, but they all share a common theme – to improve your life. Make sure you think of everything you want from your house extension before you dive in and get to work. And remember, at the ideas stage, nothing is off-limits. If there is something you want but you’re not sure if it’s possible, speak to a professional.

And if you want something akin to a conservatory but with a bit more integrity and style, have you thought about an orangery?

Missed out on ‘no stamp duty’ offer? Maybe it’s time for a home extension
