Fixed Flat Rooflights for Your Home Extension

As a homeowner, you may be considering extending your property this year to give you more living space. Whether you decide on installing a conservatory or converting loft space into a bedroom; fixed flat rooflights will only enhance both rooms.

Here at Natralight, we understand that having a home extension is an expensive task so for our latest post we are going to share some money-saving tips.

3 Ways to Save Money when Extending your Home

Do Your Maths to Cut Costs 

Before you consider what can be trimmed off your extension budget it's important you calculate exactly how much you need to spend on your extension; including interior fit-out costs. You can also get in touch with a local estate agent and query how much the proposed extension will add to the value of your home. It's worth noting that larger extensions are more cost-effective than smaller extensions, but will cost more and could push your home past the ceiling value of the street.

Simple Designs Look Spectacular

Sometimes less is more, with curves and corners costly to build, keeping your extension design as simple as possible is sensible. Designing a house with a rectangular or square footprint with a pitched roof will reduce the cost of your extension; without compromising on quality. This type of design also allows you the option to add fixed flat rooflights to the specification.

Agree to a Design - And Stick to it!

Once you have agreed to the design of your extension it is important to stick to it to keep the budget down. This also relates to our first point about doing a fully calculated costing for your new-look home.
