Your Local Home Extension
Specialists in West Wickham
Glazing lead times and steel fabrication set the real programme on a BR4 extension, not the brickwork. Buildaway separates the design and consent period from the build period on the programme so the timeline you are given is the one that happens. West Wickham sits within Buildaway's established BR4 area, with extension projects completed around West Wickham High Street, Wickham Court and Station Road.
Across West Wickham and BR4, Buildaway designs and builds extensions on 1930s semi-detached and detached houses with deep rear gardens, ideal for rear and loft work. Regular streets include High Street, Wickham Court Road and Layhams Road, with Coney Hall and Sparrows Den inside the area.
With a strong reputation for quality workmanship, Buildaway delivers extension design and construction across West Wickham and the wider BR4 area. Whether adding a single-storey rear extension or a double-storey addition, we explain the build cost and programme clearly and deliver structurally sound, well-finished results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions about home extensions in West Wickham, answered.
What usually drives the cost up?
Groundworks and glazing. Poor ground conditions mean deeper foundations, and large glazed openings need steel. Both are established at survey in BR4, so Buildaway prices them properly rather than provisionally.
Can I stay in the house during the build?
Usually yes for a single-storey rear extension, since the existing structure stays sealed until late in the programme. Buildaway phases the West Wickham work so the opening-up happens over the shortest practical period.
Do I need planning permission for an extension in West Wickham?
Many single-storey rear extensions fall under permitted development, but that changes inside West Wickham Conservation Area and Green Belt land toward Layhams Road, where allowances are materially tighter. Buildaway establishes which category your BR4 property falls into before drawing anything.
What is a build-over agreement and will I need one?
If the extension crosses a public sewer you need written consent from the water authority before building over it. It is common in West Wickham because of how rear drainage runs. The application takes several weeks, so Buildaway starts it at design stage rather than letting it delay the build.
How long does a rear extension take to build?
A single-storey rear extension is generally ten to fourteen weeks on site once foundations start, depending on glazing lead times. Double-storey work runs longer. Buildaway separates the design and consent period from the build period on the programme so expectations are realistic.
