Farmhouse Extension Foundations in Taunton SW — Built for Rural Ground

Farmhouse extension foundations are needed for any extension to an existing farmhouse, whether a single-storey addition or a multi-storey expansion. They suit homeowners and builders who want a single point of contact for the foundation.

Typical farmhouse extension projects include single-storey extensions, multi-storey expansions, and agricultural extensions to farmhouses.

Farmhouse extension foundations are the structural base for an extension to an existing farmhouse. The foundation must carry the extension loads, be specified for the rural ground conditions (which can be variable), and be connected to the existing structure. Because we design and build in-house, the foundation is engineered for the actual ground and the connection to the existing farmhouse, not a generic assumption.

We assess the ground and the existing structure, then design the foundation specification. Our team constructs the foundation and carries the work through to DPC. We coordinate with building control throughout.

Farmhouse extension foundation cost depends on the foundation type, the ground conditions, the size of the extension, and the connection to the existing structure. Access and the rural ground also affect cost. We provide a fixed quote within 48 hours of the site visit.

Can you connect the extension foundation to an old farmhouse?

Yes. We design the connection based on the existing farmhouse foundation and the ground. Where the existing foundation is adequate, we tie the new foundation to it. Where it is not, we may underpin or pile to create a stable connection. We assess both and design the right connection.
