Single-storey extensions in Enniskillen

Covering Enniskillen

Alongside Enniskillen, we also cover Lisnaskea (10 miles to the south-east), Omagh and Strabane.

Because County Fermanagh covers a wide area, we confirm availability after the first call and include any travel costs in the written quote rather than adding them later.

Homes in County Fermanagh

Northern Ireland has a high proportion of detached houses and bungalows outside the cities, which often suit side extensions, rear extensions and upward extensions.

What goes into a single-storey extension?

We design the extension around how you use the house: where the light comes from, how the new room joins the old one, and what happens to the drains and the garden. The structure is built in brick or block to match the house, finished with a flat roof and lantern or a pitched roof, then insulated, plastered and handed back ready to decorate.

Planning and building rules in Enniskillen

Projects in Northern Ireland need planning clearance from one of the eleven councils and building control approval, also from the council. The Party Wall etc. Act does not extend to Northern Ireland, so work near neighbours is agreed directly and documented carefully.

In Northern Ireland permitted development is set by the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order (Northern Ireland) 2015, and small single-storey rear extensions can often go ahead without an application. Building control approval from the council is still needed.

What should Enniskillen homeowners check first?

Drains under the footprint may need diverting or a build-over agreement with the water company.
Kitchens and doors have long lead times, so we order them early.
