Extension with lantern roof cost.
In a recent costing exercise based on a typical extension of 20 sqm 5mx4m with three external elevations we were able to complete some budget pricing.
You will also need to factor in location as this can also effect the price you pay to get the job done.
The project features bifold doors and a roof lantern and could be the perfect choice for creating an open plan kitchen diner or a similar zone.
Hi our existing extension is 4 2m by 4 8m.
We are planning a single storey extension to the rear of our property 3 5 metres x 11 metres.
A lantern window or roof lantern is designed for a flat roof usually on an extension room or conservatory.
Letting light into our homes was what windows were designed for.
Pitched roof with velux or flat roof with roof lantern.
Tiled pitched roof with velux or flat roof with pyramid lantern.
The roof therefore only.
A large roof lantern including labour can range between 3000 to 4500.
Using the build it estimating service we ve priced this 20m2 single storey rear extension at 34 662 including labour plant materials and vat.
Lose a couple of kitchen living room or dining room windows to a home extension and it can leave spaces feeling dark and dreary.
Utilising our industry experience just roof lanterns have calculated that these types of projects are circa 30 less than a bespoke fully framed timber building.
