07 / COMMON QUESTIONS
Straight answers to the usual questions.
What homeowners around Croydon ask us most often before starting a project.
How do I find a good local builder in Croydon?
Look for a builder with independently verified reviews, proof of insurance and photographs of comparable finished jobs, and make sure the quote is itemised so you can see what is and is not included. Pukka Builders has been a Checkatrade member since May 2018, holds a 10 out of 10 rating across 47 customer reviews, is fully insured and has 197+ project photographs on its verified profile.
Which areas around Croydon do you cover?
We work across Croydon and Beckenham and the surrounding parts of South London and north Surrey, including South Croydon, Purley, Sanderstead, Selsdon, Shirley, Addiscombe, Coulsdon, Thornton Heath, Norbury, Crystal Palace, Penge, West Wickham and Bromley. If you are just outside that area, call and ask.
How much does a house extension cost in Croydon?
There is no single figure, because the cost depends on the footprint, the groundworks, any structural steel, the level of glazing and the specification of the finishes. We visit the property, talk through what you want and provide a free written estimate that sets out what is included, so you can compare it properly against other quotes.
Do I need planning permission for an extension or loft conversion?
Many single-storey rear extensions and loft conversions fall under permitted development rights and do not need a full planning application, but limits apply and they are tighter for flats, maisonettes, conservation areas and listed buildings. Building Regulations approval is required either way. We will tell you which route your project is likely to take and what needs submitting to Croydon Council or Bromley Council.
Are you insured and vetted?
Yes. Pukka Builders is fully insured and has been a Checkatrade member since May 2018, having passed up to 12 vetting checks. We take on domestic, commercial and insurance work, and estimates are free.
Who runs Pukka Builders?
Pukka Builders is led by Dennis, a qualified civil engineer since 2009 who founded the company in 2018 to bring structural engineering experience directly to homeowners. That background is why we are comfortable taking on structurally demanding jobs such as steel beams and load-bearing wall removal.
