Making an extension feel like it belongs

An extension changes how a house lives, but it only works when the new part sits naturally with the old. Rooflines, materials, window proportions and internal flow all need to be considered together.

Getting the join right takes judgement on site as much as on the drawings. Small decisions about levels, openings and detailing make the difference between an extension that feels bolted on and one that feels like it was always there.

Tombs builds extensions across Cheltenham, Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds, working closely with architects where the relationship between old and new matters most.
