Building renovations and extensions in Wilmslow
Chartered Civil Engineer-led extensions, conversions and renovations.
Everstone Build & Development builds house extensions, loft conversions and full renovations in Wilmslow and the surrounding SK9 area. The company is led by Dr Omid Khalaj, a Chartered Civil Engineer (CEng MICE), so structure, foundations and ground conditions are assessed properly before design. Omid has over 20 years of experience and manages every project from design to handover.
Homes in Wilmslow
Wilmslow has a wide mix of homes. Close to the town centre and station there are Victorian and Edwardian houses and terraces, while the roads spreading out towards Lindow, Fulshaw and Handforth are dominated by detached and semi-detached family houses from the 1920s onwards, many on generous plots.
A good number of Wilmslow's detached homes have already been extended once, sometimes decades ago. That often means an older flat-roofed extension or a dated conservatory that needs replacing, or a layout that has grown piece by piece rather than being designed as a whole.
Typical projects
What works well in Wilmslow?
Large rear kitchen-diner extensions with wide glazing suit many Wilmslow homes, often combined with a knock-through to create one open-plan family space. On detached houses, two-storey side extensions and wraparound schemes can add a bedroom and en-suite as well.
Ground conditions vary across the town, from sandy soils to softer, peaty ground towards Lindow Moss, and the River Bollin and River Dean run through the area. Our director is a Registered Ground Engineering Professional, so foundation design near trees, watercourses and soft ground is handled in-house rather than guessed.
Planning
Planning notes for Wilmslow
Wilmslow is in Cheshire East, so planning applications and many building control applications go to Cheshire East Council. Parts of the town are conservation areas, where permitted development rights are more limited and design is looked at more closely.
The land around Wilmslow is largely Green Belt. Homes on the edge of the town may find that large extensions are judged against how much they add to the size of the original house. We check the designation for your address during the feasibility check.

FAQs
Building work in Wilmslow: frequently asked questions
Do you build extensions in Wilmslow?
Yes. Everstone builds single-storey, double-storey and wraparound extensions in Wilmslow, along with loft conversions, structural alterations and full renovations.
Which council deals with planning in Wilmslow?
Planning applications for homes in Wilmslow are decided by Cheshire East Council, which also covers Alderley Edge, Prestbury and Knutsford.
Does soft ground in Wilmslow affect extension foundations?
Soft or peaty ground, trees and nearby watercourses can all mean deeper or specially designed foundations. Everstone's director is a Chartered Civil Engineer and Registered Ground Engineering Professional, so this is assessed before the extension is priced.
How much does a single-storey extension cost in Wilmslow?
As a guide, single-storey extensions in the Wilmslow area typically start from around £2,000 to £2,800 per square metre plus VAT for the build, before kitchens and finishes, with the final figure confirmed at the feasibility stage.
Can you replace an old conservatory with a proper extension?
Yes. Everstone can replace a dated conservatory or flat-roofed extension in Wilmslow with a new, insulated extension, and the existing foundations are checked before the design is agreed.
Can you work with my own architect on a Wilmslow project?
Yes. Everstone can build from your architect's drawings or arrange the drawings, and in both cases the structural calculations are prepared in-house by the company's Chartered Civil Engineer director.
