Is Your Home Holding You Back? Plan Now to Take Control of Your Space
As August rolls in, many homeowners find themselves caught between the tail end of summer and the early signs of a new season. It’s a natural time to reflect: is your home working for you, or against you? For families feeling squeezed for space, or tired of layouts that don’t suit modern life, now is the time to start planning your next move — not in spring, not someday — now.
At Simply Extensions & Lofts, we’re helping clients across South West London and Surrey take action before the autumn rush begins. Here’s why now is the moment to get ahead:
1. Avoid the Autumn Bottleneck
September through November is traditionally one of the busiest periods in residential construction. Waiting until then means:
- Longer lead times
- Limited availability from quality builders
- Planning approval delays
By acting in August, we can:
✔ Finalise your brief
✔ Appoint your architect or planning team
✔ Book your build slot before others catch up
2. Use the Transition Period to Your Advantage
August is a transition month — the social calendar slows, kids return to school soon, and the pace steadies. That makes it ideal for:
✔ Design meetings without distractions
✔ Site visits and quotes
✔ Firm decisions before the school run chaos returns
3. Be Ready for a New Chapter by Christmas
Whether it’s a loft conversion for visiting family or an open-plan kitchen ready for hosting this winter — starting now means:
- On-site by early autumn
- Weather-efficient build timing
- Completion by December in many cases
We Make It Simple
At Simply Extensions & Lofts, we offer:
✔ Free initial consultations
✔ Design, planning and construction in one team
✔ A proven track record of clean, well-managed builds
