Expanding your living space through a home extension is an exciting prospect, particularly in the dynamic landscape of London, where every inch of space counts. Determining the average costs of extensions in the capital is a crucial step in planning your project.


In the bustling city, the cost of extensions can vary, influenced by factors such as property size, specific goals, and even your location within the metropolis.
