House Extensions in Oxford
BuildWell Oxford designs and builds house extensions across Oxford and the surrounding OX4 area. Over 30 years we have added kitchen extensions, side returns and full two storey additions to homes of every age and style. Our team manages the whole build, from groundwork and brickwork through to plastering and finishing, so you get one point of contact throughout. We plan every extension to tie in with the existing house, so the finished result looks like it has always been part of the property.
More Information
Planning Your Extension
Every extension starts with a conversation about how you want to use the extra space and how it should connect to the rest of the house. We talk through layout, roof style and materials with you before any work begins, and we can advise on what is likely to fall under permitted development rules for your Oxford property. Getting this stage right avoids costly changes later, which is why we take time over it from the very first visit.
Groundwork and Structure
A strong extension starts below ground. We dig and lay proper foundations suited to the ground conditions on your plot, then build up the brickwork or blockwork to match the existing house wherever possible. Our team handles the structural work, roofing and first fix stages carefully, checking everything against the plans as we go so the build stays on track and to a high standard throughout.
Finishing Touches
The finishing stage is where an extension really comes together, with plastering, flooring, tiling and decorating bringing the new space to life. We can also fit a new kitchen or bathroom as part of the same project, so the whole extension is completed by one team rather than being handed between separate trades. The result is a smooth, well managed build from start to finish.
ABOUT US
BuildWell Oxford has been building house extensions across the city for 30 years, working on period terraces, semi detached homes and larger detached properties throughout the OX4 postcode. That range of experience means we understand how to extend different types of Oxford housing without losing the character of the original building.
30 years of building experience across Oxford
Full range of construction, paving and fencing services under one roof
Family run team who know Oxford's homes and gardens well
Extended working hours from 7am to 7pm
Careful, tidy work on every site, large or small
We have built extensions in Marston, laid patios in Sandford on Thames, put up new fencing in Wheatley and re-turfed gardens in Radley. Our vans are a familiar sight on the roads around Cumnor and Sunningwell too, and many of our newer customers come to us on the recommendation of a neighbour we have already worked for. We know Oxford's streets, its older housing stock and its newer developments, and that local knowledge helps us get every job right first time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a house extension take in Oxford?
A single storey extension in Oxford typically takes several weeks to a few months, while a two storey extension usually takes longer. Timescales depend on the size of the project, the weather and any planning requirements. We give you a realistic schedule once we have seen your property.
Will my house extension in Oxford need planning permission?
Some extensions fall under permitted development rules, while others need full planning permission, depending on the size, position and your property type. BuildWell Oxford can advise on what your Oxford extension is likely to need before you commit to a design.
Can BuildWell Oxford manage the whole extension project?
Yes. We handle groundwork, brickwork, roofing and finishing as one team, so you are not left coordinating separate contractors. This keeps your Oxford extension project simple and on schedule from start to finish.
