Why house extensions work well in Ware
Ware keeps its historic maltings-town character with period cottages and townhouses near the river, alongside generous Victorian and Edwardian villas and modern family housing on the edges, much of it well suited to extending, converting or refurbishing. That makes Ware a great place to extend into the garden or side return, and because we design and build in one team, your drawings are always buildable and your price is set early and honestly.
Planning and building control in Ware
Ware sits under East Herts Council. Many rear extensions are permitted development, though depth limits and conservation areas apply, and we handle the application either way. As a design and build team we prepare the drawings and manage the whole process for you, so there is one team accountable from first sketch to sign-off.
