House Extensions in Ilford
Ilford is one of our most active work areas — well-connected by the Elizabeth line and with solid Edwardian terrace stock that generates consistent extension and loft work.
House Extensions in Ilford — what to expect
Ilford's Edwardian terraces are ideal extension candidates. Rear single-storey extensions are the most common — typically 3–6m depth with flat roof and roof light or roof lantern. Side returns on end-of-terrace properties add useful kitchen and dining space. The Elizabeth line has driven rising values and increased investment in quality extension work.
Ilford property types
Edwardian terraces and semis, interwar development near the town centre. The property type affects which extensions approach works best — we'll advise from the first call.
