all depends on size
loft conversion approx £700 per square meter
new build approx £1000 per square meter

windows depends how many
same with drive steps etc, all depends on size.

£100k might see it done but as said depends very much on the size of extension amount of work required to convert loft if it is suitable, joist sizes and spans for example

anything you can do yourself, do it yourself, i.e. removal of stuff

Dont tell the builder you have a 100k budget...He'll just rub his hands together:)

You could do the demo yourself to save money, the rest will depend on the quality of finish you want i.e. you could easy spend 20k on a kitchen...

I was under the impression though that a decent sized rear extension with kitchen ect cost in the region of £40k in total, so with that in mind, thought all of the above would add up?

yes :lol:

the typical house only costs around 50k to build from scratch + land

Could all this be done for £100k (obviously approx) using a builder (i.e. nothing done by myself)?
