Specialists in Maida Vale
Need extension specialists in Maida Vale (W9)? Buildaway works across W9 - the
mansion blocks on Elgin Avenue, Sutherland Avenue and Randolph Avenue, the houses
near Clifton Gardens and Warwick Avenue, and the properties around Little Venice,
the Regent's Canal and Maida Hill.
Extension work in Maida Vale is as much a consent exercise as a build, and Buildaway
secures the freeholder position before the first drawing lands. In W9 much of the
stock is leasehold mansion flats where any structural alteration needs the
freeholder as well as the council, and the lease usually decides the answer.
Buildaway resolves that, then delivers structure, services and finish on a single
Maida Vale contract.

What Our Clients Say
Real reviews from our satisfied customers.
“From my first contact with Cormac, I was in good hands. His team turned my vision into reality, communicating with me every step of the way and offered helpful suggestions which turned my bathroom into an oasis. I could not be happier and would highly recommend their services. Thank you to the team of Buildaway Construction Ltd…”
Jackie Brown
“The quality of the work, their high standards, and their professionalism, along with effective and proactive communication made a refreshing change from the builders I have used in the past. Even when we changed our minds and ideas during the job Cormac’s patience and support emphasised that he wanted to make sure that the finished product was exactly what we wanted…”
Michael Marks
“We had an excellent experience working with Buildaway. Cormac was incredibly easy to work with, and gave helpful advice. The finished job was neat, professional and completed efficiently. We'd definitely recommend and would use them again!”
Roisin Lawrence
“I received an excellent service from the outset with a very high standard of the completed work. Cormac was very responsive to my wish for a traditional period bathroom and helped me to source the suite, the tiles, the paneling and flooring. The team are respectful to the home generally. I am very pleased with the finished bathroom…”
Philomena Mulcahy
“The team turned up when they said they would and kept the house tidy each day, which made a big difference while we were living in the property during the works. The quality of the finish is excellent. The bathroom looks fantastic and the bedrooms feel completely refreshed. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Cormac and the Buildaway team…”
Helen Sivyer
“Greg's attention to detail and dedication elevated both the experience and the result - he certainly knows his way around a tile. In addition to the bathroom refit, Cormac replaced all the plastic switches, sockets and pull-cords in the house with brushed brass. Highly recommended and will certainly work with the Buildaway team again…”

Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions about home extensions in Maida Vale, answered.
How much does a home extension cost in Maida Vale?
As a guide, a home extension in Maida Vale (W9) runs roughly £40,000–£60,000 for a single-storey rear, £60,000–£80,000 for a larger or wrap-around scheme, and £100,000+ for double-storey work. UK build costs sit around £1,800–£3,000 per m², and London consistently lands at the upper end. Buildaway fixes your figure in a written quote after survey.
How long does a home extension take in Maida Vale?
Twelve to twenty weeks on site for Maida Vale, scheme depending. The build is the predictable part; Westminster City Council determination and party-wall awards are what stretch W9 projects. Buildaway handles both alongside design so the dates hold.
Do I need planning permission for an extension in Maida Vale?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. In Maida Vale, permitted development can cover a modest rear extension, but Westminster City Council takes a close view on anything altering the street elevation, and heritage designation around Elgin Avenue and Little Venice removes the easy route. Buildaway checks planning, party-wall and freeholder position together.
What types of extension do you offer in Maida Vale?
We handle single-storey, side-return, wrap-around, double-storey and basement extensions throughout Maida Vale. The right answer for your W9 property depends on drainage, boundary and Westminster City Council policy. Buildaway establishes those before proposing anything.
Do Buildaway handle both design and construction for Maida Vale extensions?
Both, on one contract. For Maida Vale clients Buildaway handles drawings, structural engineering, consents and construction. Splitting design from build is where W9 extension projects most often lose money, because the gap between them is nobody's problem until it is yours.
Are your extension specialists local to Maida Vale?
Yes, Maida Vale is core Buildaway territory. We build extensions across W9 regularly and understand both the buildings and the Westminster City Council policies that govern them.
