Transform your home with a beautifully designed extension from Standley Design & Build. From the initial concept and planning stages through structural design and construction, our expert team manages every detail — ensuring a seamless, stress-free experience and a stunning new space that enhances both your lifestyle and the value of your property.
As a husband and dad himself, our founder Jon Standley understands how family life really works. He knows an extension isn’t just about adding more room — it’s about designing a home that truly supports the way you live, making daily life simpler, more functional, and more enjoyable for everyone.
We plan each stage carefully to minimise disruption, so your family can carry on with daily life while we transform your home.
Explore some of our recent home extensions, where we’ve transformed properties with beautifully designed spaces that elevate everyday living — from open-plan kitchens and family rooms to elegant bedrooms, home offices, and inviting guest suites.
Our customers are truly at the heart of everything we do, and their experiences reflect the care, dedication, and attention to detail that go into every loft conversion we deliver.
I am glad I have chosen Jon for my home renovation projects. He was fantastic listening to what we wanted for the transformation and provided a lot of examples for reference. He was very efficient laying out the plans, providing competitive quotes and mostly importantly responsive whenever I reached out.
We had an amazing experience converting our loft with Standley Design and Build, from the initial quote to completing the job. Jon was very clear about what the quote included and very well organised. Throughout the job, communication was fantastic and any small issues sorted quickly and fairly.
We had the pleasure of using Standley Design & Build to renovate and reconfigure our bedroom (which used to be a living room). The whole process was seamless, great communication throughout and we’re so so happy with the final result. Thank you so much to Jon and the team.
We understand that moving can be one of life’s most stressful experiences — from endless packing and rising costs to leaving behind a home full of memories. That’s why we believe the better choice is transforming the space you already love. A loft conversion gives you the extra room your family needs without the hassle of relocating, turning your current house into your forever home.
At Standley Design & Build, our work is shaped by a commitment to quality, honesty, and care — values that guide every decision we make and every space we create. We believe your home deserves the same attention and respect we’d give our own.

Most home extensions take around 10 to 16 weeks, depending on size and complexity. At Standley Design & Build, we plan each stage with care to keep your project on schedule and minimise disruption to daily life.
Many home extensions fall under permitted development rights, so planning permission isn’t always required. If yours does, we’ll guide you through every step — from preparing drawings and submitting applications to securing approvals — making the whole process simple and stress-free.
Yes — most families remain at home during an extension project. Our team works carefully to minimise disruption, reduce mess, and keep your daily routine running smoothly from start to finish.
Costs vary depending on the size, design, and complexity of the project, but most home extensions range from £60,000 to £120,000. We provide clear, upfront pricing with no hidden surprises and work closely with you to make the most of your budget.
