Building services across Oxford

Extensions, refurbishments and internal home improvements

Cherwell Oxford is a trusted local builder working across Oxford and the surrounding villages. We specialise in residential and commercial projects of all sizes, delivering everything from home extensions and renovations to conversions and full internal refurbishments.

​

Our approach is simple: dependable building work, delivered with care, clear communication and a genuine focus on craftsmanship at every stage of your project.

Extensions

Extensions create the extra space that you and your home needs, whether you’re adding a larger kitchen, new living area or additional rooms.

​

We work with designers and architects to deliver your project. Once we are working from your drawings, we handle every stage of the build from foundations and structural work to electrics, plumbing and finishing, ensuring the new space feels seamless and fully integrated with your home.

Single-Storey Extensions

Single-storey extensions are a popular choice for homes across Oxford, Headington and the surrounding areas. They’re ideal for expanding kitchen spaces, creating open-plan layouts and improving the overall flow of the home.

Double-Storey Extensions

If you’re looking to create more living space alongside additional bedrooms, bathrooms or a home office, a double-storey extension can be an ideal solution. We design and build carefully considered double-storey extensions that either blend seamlessly with your existing property or introduce a striking, modern contrast.

Side
Extensions

If you have space at the side of your property and want to avoid losing garden area, a side extension is an excellent way to increase your internal living space. Depending on the size of the extension, this can also allow for the creation of a utility room, cloakroom or additional storage.

Wraparound Extensions

By extending to both the side and rear of your property, we create highly versatile layouts that maximise your internal living space. Wraparound extensions are ideal for homeowners in Oxford and Headington looking to achieve open-plan living or significantly increase the size of their ground floor.

Ready to discuss your building project?

Our house project has been a tremendous success and looking back onto the past year we will never forget the enormous effort put into building our house during a world pandemic! What a project, but the results are fantastic and we are really pleased with the final outcome and thank you all for the great team effort, everyone’s patience, the brilliant exchanges of ideas and great skilled work of Ian’s team that has made this house a home for us! We can’t wait to show it off to family and friends when the lockdowns are over, they will no doubt be very jealous! We have really enjoyed working with you all, and of course this is far from the end of our relationship but just an interim moment and look forward to our future collaboration!
