House Extensions in Cookridge by BMK Joinery & Building

Cookridge sits on the north-west edge of Leeds, in the same LS16 postcode area as our Leeds base, so site visits and quotes are quick to arrange. We provide house extensions for homeowners in Cookridge (LS16) and nearby Adel, Bramhope and Horsforth.

Many homes in Cookridge are 1930s to 1980s semis and detached houses with room to grow at the rear or the side. Single storey kitchen extensions, wrap-around layouts and two storey additions are all common. We build them with the foundations, steelwork, roof and finishing carpentry handled by one team.

An extension is one of the best ways to gain living space without moving. BMK Joinery & Building Ltd handles the whole build, from groundworks, brickwork and roofing to bi-fold doors, roof windows and the internal joinery that finishes the room. Having joiners and builders in one team means the structure and the finish are planned together.

  • Single storey rear and side extensions
  • Two storey and wrap-around extensions
  • Bi-fold doors, French doors and roof windows
  • Brick, render and tile finishes matched to your home
  • Steelwork, structural openings and open-plan layouts
  • Joinery finishing: skirting, architraves, doors and fitted units
Local knowledge

Building and joinery in Cookridge

The area is mostly 1960s to 1980s detached and semi-detached houses and bungalows on generous plots. That mix suits dormers and roof lifts on bungalows, kitchen extensions to the rear, and a second round of upgrades such as new windows, doors and flooring.

Many single storey rear extensions can be built under permitted development, but depth, height and boundary rules apply, so check with Leeds City Council before committing. We are happy to talk through the options.

Cookridge is covered by Leeds City Council. Most homes are not listed, but it is still worth checking boundary positions and any restrictive covenants before work starts, and we will talk these through when we visit.
