Hi folks,
I have a single garage with a pitched roof, the garage door is on the low wall so not on the gable end,
Im planning to have an extension essentially adding another 4m onto the length out the front of the garage.
So remove garage door build the 2 side walls out 4m put the garage door back in.
New roof will be at 90 degrees to the existing one so will be tied in accordingly.
Can anyone give me a ballpark figure of what you would expect to be paying for this kind of building work.
Maybe I'm being naive but it seems fairly simple to me, and having never had work done before i'm not sure whether it's going to be 5K or 25K!

Current ground is block paving, so needs removing and prepping accordingly.

It is single brick, the walls will be 4m long x 2m high
Floor is 11m sq
No drainage work
No electrical work
No heating or insulation
i don't need the garage door supplying or fitting

£400 to £500/m2 ex VAT should get you in the ball park.
Probably at the lower end considering no drains or electrics and only 3 sides.

I would guess around £8k to £10k for that, technically not that difficult but a reasonable amount of work.

Depends. There's a few variables: ground conditions, access, location (London v the north), finish standard, etc. Should be nearer 5k than 25k but I reckon it would be possible to spend either of those amounts. As above 10k seems about right.
