Frequently Asked Questions About House Extension Structural Engineering

Q. What do you need from me to start my extension project?

We need your architectural design drawings or detailed sketches showing the proposed extension layout and dimensions. Information about your existing building construction is helpful, along with any previous structural report or building survey details if available.

A structural inspection may be required for complex extensions or where possible structural issues are unclear. We’ll discuss specific requirements during your free initial consultation and provide a clear checklist for your home renovation project.

Q. How long do extension structural calculations take?

Most extension structural calculations are completed within 1-2 weeks of instruction. Simple single storey extensions may be completed faster, while complex projects requiring structural surveys or structural damage assessments may require up to 3 weeks.

Our structural engineer’s expertise ensures calculations are thorough and accurate. We provide realistic timescales during your initial consultation and keep you informed of progress throughout your building works.

Q. Do I need a structural engineer for my house extension?

Yes, most house extensions require structural engineering calculations to comply with Building Regulations. You’ll likely to need a structural engineer when your extension involves new foundations, making structural changes, or significant loads on your existing building.

A structural engineer can provide the necessary calculations and drawings required by local building control. When building an extension, engineers don’t just design – they ensure the stability of the building and structural integrity throughout the building project.
