Trusted, Accredited & Qualified Construction Company Dublin

Budget sits at the top of your planning list. You need to know exactly how much you can spend and include a contingency fund of about 10-15% for unexpected costs.

Your timeline matters too. We recommend planning around your family’s schedule and considering factors like school terms or work commitments. Some renovation projects can be quite disruptive to daily life.

Check if you need planning permission before you start any work. Extensions and significant structural changes usually require approval from your local council. We can help guide you through this process.

A single-storey extension usually takes 3-4 months from start to finish. This includes groundwork, building, roofing, and all internal finishes.

Two-storey extensions need more time, typically 4-6 months. Weather can affect timelines, especially during the groundwork and roofing stages.

We always provide a detailed schedule before starting work. This helps you plan around the construction and know what to expect each week.

Built-in storage works brilliantly in attics. We can create wardrobes and shelving that fit into the eaves where the ceiling height is lower.

Dormer windows add valuable headroom and floor space. They also bring in natural light, which makes the room feel much larger than it actually is.

Keep your colour palette light and bright. White or pale walls reflect light around the space and create an open, airy feeling.

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) boards offer excellent insulation at a reasonable price. They’re lightweight, easy to install, and provide good thermal performance.

Mineral wool is another solid choice. It’s fire-resistant, soundproof, and works well in most weather conditions.

We often recommend using insulation with a minimum R-value of 3.5 for external walls. This meets current building regulations and significantly reduces heat loss in your home.

Two-tone cabinetry has become very popular. Many homeowners choose darker base units with lighter wall cabinets to create visual interest.

Large kitchen islands serve multiple purposes. They provide extra workspace, storage, and a casual dining area all in one feature.

Handleless cabinets give a sleek, minimalist look. Push-to-open mechanisms keep surfaces smooth and clean, which makes the kitchen easier to maintain.

Storage needs careful planning. We recommend including recessed shelving in shower areas and vanity units with plenty of drawer space.

Walk-in showers with frameless glass screens look modern and work well in most bathroom sizes. They’re easier to clean than traditional shower enclosures too.

Heated towel rails and underfloor heating add comfort without taking up wall space. Good ventilation is essential to prevent mould and keep your bathroom fresh.
