House Extensions in Glasgow
Single and two-storey extensions, from drawings and warrant to the completion certificate.
House Extensions in Glasgow
Glasgow is Scotland's largest city, built along the River Clyde. Its neighbourhoods range from tenement streets near the centre to leafy suburbs and larger housing areas further out. Homes here range from tenements, villas, terraces and modern flats.
An extension is usually the biggest single change you can make to a house without moving. One of our closest projects to Glasgow is the open plan kitchen extension in Kilmarnock, about 20 miles away. We also work in Glasgow West End, Glasgow Southside and Rutherglen, close to Glasgow.
Glasgow is about 21 miles from our Kilmarnock office as the crow flies. Planning and building warrant applications for Glasgow go to Glasgow City Council, and we deal with them for you.

We cannot recommend Cutwood Joinery enough. We have just completed our project which involved removing a wall between our kitchen and dining room, removing doors through to our conservatory, floors brought to same height making it a large open plan space.Susan B.Wall removal and open plan · Google review
The works were well coordinated and carried out quickly, efficiently and to a high standard by talented tradesmen, who had an eye for detail. Communication was excellent and we appreciated Kris keeping us up to date throughout.Suzanne S.Repairs, three trades · Google review
Although the disruption surrounding building works is never pleasant, it has been a pleasure working with Oscar and Kris at Cutwood. ... the end result after 6 months work, certainly so far as the dormer is concerned, is better then we were hoping for.Martin H.Loft and garage conversion · Google review
