Design & Build
From initial concept to home extension completion
Extending your home is one of the largest renovation projects you’ll ever undertake so getting the right building contractor on board is crucial to ensuring your dream home becomes a reality. At Stubbs Homes we work with you from the very early stages of your project, understanding your vision and providing our expertise to develop a full scope with detailed proposals, and an honest assessment of the costs involved.
Our full turnkey service includes design, project management and build so that you can rest assured all aspects of your project are professionally supported. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail, premium quality workmanship and solutions-led approach so that you can enhance your living space and add value to your home.
As design and building specialists in Warsash, we offer our services to homes in areas such as Southampton, Portsmouth, Fareham and all surrounding areas.
Project Planning
We start with learning what you want to achieve from your build. By understanding your motivations for an extension we can offer our expert advice and help you to make key decisions that will influence the overall design, planning schedule, and costs. On our survey visits, we’ll look at the existing footprint of your home and the flow through rooms, identify potential constraints, and discuss design ideas.
Our detailed proposal will set out the key stages of the build and how we will project manage your development. Meeting regularly at this stage will give you confidence in our preparation and ability to deliver the full scope of your project.

Design
Once the full scope of your project has been agreed we’ll work with an architect to develop a design for your home. This may include a structural and drainage survey as well as electrical and heating plans to ensure all factors are accounted for at this early stage of your project. We’ll also discuss the finishes, fixtures and fittings available.
The design drawings will be used to obtain planning permission where needed and will be reviewed throughout the build to ensure compliance and that our highest quality standards are upheld.
If you already have plans in place, we will collaborate with your architect and offer our advice and project management service, as well as the build of your project.
