Understanding Extensions
An extension is an addition to your existing property, typically built onto the side or rear of your home. It can be a single or double-storey structure and can serve various purposes, such as a new kitchen, bedroom, or living area. There are several types of extensions, including single-storey extensions, double-storey extensions, conservatories, orangeries, and loft conversions. The type of extension you choose will depend on your needs, budget, and the space available.

Energy Efficient
Energy efficiency is a crucial factor to consider when planning an extension. An energy-efficient extension can help reduce your energy bills, improve your home’s comfort, and contribute to a more sustainable environment. Energy-efficient extensions are designed and built using materials and techniques that minimise heat loss and maximise natural light. This includes high-quality insulation, energy-efficient windows and doors, and careful orientation and design to take advantage of passive solar heating.

When planning an extension, it’s important to strike a balance between style and durability. A stylish extension can enhance your home’s appearance and value, while a durable extension will stand the test of time and provide a comfortable and functional space for many years. Achieving a stylish yet durable extension involves choosing high-quality materials, employing skilled builders, and carefully planning the design and layout of the extension. It’s also important to maintain your extension properly to keep it looking its best and prolong its lifespan. Here at D&I we are Which?

It’s also important to consider how the extension will be used and how it will fit with your lifestyle.
Stylish and Durable
Durability is another essential factor to consider when planning an extension. A durable extension will withstand the elements, require less maintenance, and last for many years. Several factors contribute to the durability of extensions, including the quality of materials used, the skill and expertise of the builders, and the design of the extension. To ensure your extension is durable, it’s important to work with a reputable supplier who uses high-quality materials and employs skilled and experienced builders.

I am very impressed with d&i windows. From start to finish they have been excellent. Kelly was very friendly when she came to quote, the surveyor was very friendly and knowledgeable and the fitter was very good too. After shopping around, both the wait time and price was the best in Barnsley. Really happy we chose them. Will definitely recommend

Gave D&I a call after struggling to get a ramp done for my mother in law who has been diagnosed with motor neurone disease and hasn’t been able to leave the house for a year. They immediately got on with sorting it and it wasn’t an easy process but Dave never stopped planning it and came up with a solution, They had black composite decking with a ramp and it looks absolutely beautiful ,cannot thank you all enough for everything you’ve done an absolute brilliant service

Anyone looking for new Conservatory with a light weight tiled roof look no further. These guys do a excellent job, so organised all the trades followed each other, even Covid 19 only caused slight delay D & I were back on the job as soon as safety allowed. I doubt you will get a better price anywhere else either.
Jillian Butler - 05/11/21
Would definitely recommend. Came round to offer quote quickly. No hard sell (didn't spend hours trying to wear me down like other companies). Fair and competitive price. Very helpful in organising a fairly fast turnaround to fit in with our other building work. Guys that came to fit windows did a really neat job, took care to put down dust sheets and also tidied up after themselves. Windows look great. Certificate arrived within a couple of weeks as promised. Thanks D&I!
