Garstang is a historic market town on the Lancaster Canal, and it is one of the areas we work in most regularly out of our Preston base. House extensions are the project most Preston homeowners ask us about first, and it is easy to see why: a well-planned kitchen-diner or side-return extension changes how a family actually uses a house, without the upheaval of moving. Properties around Garstang tend to be Georgian and Victorian market-town properties along the canal, with newer developments on the outskirts, which shapes everything from foundation depth to how we tie new work into the existing structure.
We regularly design and build rear and side-return extensions for Garstang families wanting a bigger kitchen-diner without moving house. Drive time from our 2 Longley Close, Preston, PR2 9FL base is around 20 minutes (roughly 11 miles), which means site visits, deliveries, and snagging call-backs never sit on the back burner the way they might with a contractor based further out.
We would rather give you an honest, no-obligation quote for your Garstang project than a vague estimate, so get in touch and we will arrange a site visit.
Quick Answer
A house extension adds new, permanent floor space to an existing property, most commonly a single-storey rear or side-return extension for a larger kitchen-diner, or a two-storey extension adding a bedroom above. It involves new foundations, brickwork or block-and-render walls, a roof structure, and full connection into the existing house's services and structure.

on site, from foundations to handover, for a standard single-storey extension
A house extension adds new, permanent floor space to your existing home, typically a single-storey rear extension for a bigger kitchen-diner or a two-storey extension for extra bedrooms. It involves foundations, a new structural shell, a roof, and full integration into your home's existing services. It is one of the more common enquiries we get from Garstang, particularly from Georgian and Victorian market-town properties along the canal.
