House Extensions in Ashton-on-Ribble

Many Ashton-on-Ribble houses sit on tight terraced plots, so extensions here need careful planning to make the most of narrow gardens and shared boundaries. We build rear and side extensions that add a proper kitchen diner or an extra bedroom, matching brickwork to the older stock so the new part settles in. We manage the build cleanly and keep neighbours onside throughout.
