Rear home extension — Mansouri Design and Build, Essex

Space that feels like it was always there.

We design and build home extensions from the first drawing to the finished room. One team manages architecture, planning, structural engineering and construction — so the result reflects the brief.

One team. No gap between design and build.

Most home extensions involve at least three separate businesses: an architect for the drawings, a structural engineer for the calculations, and a builder for the work. Coordinating between them adds time, cost, and risk of things getting lost in translation.

We coordinate architecture, structural engineering and construction through one Mansouri-managed team and one point of contact, under a single contract. Design and delivery answer to the same people, which is why the finished result looks like the drawing.

Priced against a drawing, not a guess.

Cost follows the structure, the ground conditions and the specification, and those differ between two houses on the same street. We quote against an agreed design with the specification attached, itemised so you can see what is included and what is not.

Heritage flint and brick arch — Mansouri Design & Build, Essex

Extending heritage homes requires a different kind of expertise.

Listed buildings and period properties cannot simply be extended using standard construction methods. The materials, detailing and regulatory requirements are fundamentally different — and the consequences of getting them wrong are both visible and lasting.

We design extensions that sit naturally alongside historic buildings — using handmade brick, lime mortar, natural slate and oak framing to create additions that respect the host property's age and character. Every heritage extension project we undertake is designed to look as though it has always been there.
