Look, I can remember I was doing extensions for, you know, 1,200 to 1,500 euros a square metre.
But in reality... Not too long ago, I'd say.
Well, you're talking definitely, you know, probably somewhere between six and eight years ago.
There was a huge uplift in cost after COVID came along.
And now, you know, we've got just everything has risen in cost.
But also building regulations have massively increased as well.
So I suppose the options that people have are, do they stay in their home?
And then if they're going to stay in the home, what do they actually need?
Because I often turn up to someone's home and they've asked me to come and say they need an extension.
But when you get to the home...
The home actually is big enough, but there's maybe a room that they're not using and they should be repurposing that room rather than adding, you know, square meters or square footage to their home.
But look, it is well worth getting advice, you know, good advice in these situations and finding out what you need.
The first thing that people think of is we need an extension.
But do you really actually need an extension?
And if you do need an extension, what is the purpose of the extension?
Is it to move your kitchen out to that area to create more living space?
Do you need another bedroom for the additional children that have come along?
Do you just want it for a gym?
