How much does a home extension cost in Rochester?

Budgets for a home extension in Rochester generally land between £23,000–£80,500. South East costs typically run above the UK average — Kent labour and materials are a real factor. Expect single vs double storey and floor area and planning, glazing and finish quality to move the price most, along with foundations and structural work. Getting two or three quotes is the best way to see a fair local price, which is exactly what our free matching service arranges.
