If you love your home but have outgrown the space, a professionally built extension is the perfect alternative to the stress and cost of moving. At FTF Building & Landscaping, we specialise in high-quality home extensions across Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire, delivering extra living space that blends seamlessly with your existing property. From the initial groundworks to the final roof tiles, we focus on structural integrity and premium finishes. Whether you’re dreaming of a large open-plan kitchen-diner, a new lounge, or an extra bedroom, we bring years of building experience to ensure your project is completed to the highest standard, on time, and on budget.
Many single-storey extensions fall under Permitted Development, but this depends on the size and location of your project. Even if you don't need planning permission, you always need Building Regulations approval. We work closely with local authorities to ensure your build is fully compliant and legally documented.

Alternatively, we can design the extension to look intentionally different, creating a striking "modern-meets-traditional" aesthetic that avoids a "clashed" look.
