Guide to Extensions in Ealing

The roof form and the inclusion of rooflights is an important factor and opportunity for every extension project. There are many possibilities. The extent of glass is key. Designing with 3D computer models enables us to explore the impact of moving or changing the size of a rooflight will have on the interior. A large amount of roof glazing as at our wraparound extension in Winchendon Road for example requires us to prove the energy performance to Building Control which we are experienced in doing.
