House Extensions & Renovations in Totton

Yes. Our registered office is at the New Forest Enterprise Centre on Chapel Lane, Totton, SO40 9LA. We cover the whole of Totton and Eling, including Calmore, Hounsdown, West Totton and Eling, plus Marchwood, Ashurst, Netley Marsh, Cadnam and Ower on the New Forest edge. Site visits are free and usually quick to arrange because we are already here.

For most of the town, planning is handled by New Forest District Council and many single-storey rear extensions fall under permitted development. However, the part of the parish west of the A326 is inside the New Forest National Park, where the National Park Authority decides applications and rules are tighter, and Eling has a conservation area. Whichever authority decides the planning, building regulations approval is still needed. We confirm which authority and route applies at the site visit.

Most single-storey extensions in Totton land between £60,000 and £130,000, and double-storey extensions between £100,000 and £220,000, depending on size, specification and whether a kitchen fit-out is included. A full house renovation typically runs from around £80,000 upwards. You get a fixed written quote, broken down line by line, before anything starts.

Yes, and they are among the most rewarding projects we do. A typical scope for a 1970s home is a full rewire, new plumbing and heating, improved insulation, replastering, a new kitchen and bathrooms, new flooring and full decoration, often paired with a rear extension to open up the ground floor. One team handles the lot, so the work is sequenced properly and finished to one standard.

Yes. Marchwood, Ashurst, Netley Marsh, Cadnam and Ower are all within our regular working area from Totton. Properties closer to or inside the National Park boundary need more careful planning work, which we handle as part of the project.
