Creating space that works for you
At BK Patterson, we make expanding your Wellington home easy. Whether you’re looking to add extra bedrooms, create a larger living space, or complete a stylish kitchen extension, we’re here to help you make the most of your space. With over 35 years of experience in Wellington and across New Zealand, we understand how to seamlessly integrate extensions into your existing home.
As families grow, space needs change. Whether it’s a new bedroom for a baby, a private retreat for teens, or a space for aging parents, extensions keep everyone comfortable under one roof. BK Patterson specialises in designing extensions that fit seamlessly with your home, balancing functionality and flow. Our goal? To create space that adapts to your family’s evolving needs, so your home grows right along with you
When your home feels cramped, an extension can bring the room you need to breathe. From open-plan living areas and spacious kitchens to dedicated home offices, we design extensions that enhance your lifestyle. At BK Patterson, we focus on thoughtful, functional spaces that transform how you live, making your home feel bigger, brighter, and perfectly suited to your needs.
A well-executed extension can be a game-changer for your property’s value. Adding modern features, like extra bathrooms or a stylish living area, not only improves your daily life but also makes your home more appealing in the market. BK Patterson ensures your extension is built to boost value and meet Wellington’s unique demands, making your investment one that lasts.
As early as possible! Reaching out in the early stages means we can help you from the concept stage right through to completion. Early engagement allows us to offer cost-effective ideas and insights that can simplify the process and save you time and hassle later on. The sooner we’re on board, the smoother the journey will be!
Project lengths vary depending on the scope. A typical extension might take X-X months to complete the construction and add to that design, planning and consent processes.
At BK Patterson, we set out the timeline before the project begins and every project comes with a dedicated project manager to keep things moving. From scheduling trades to meeting building code requirements, our project managers keep everything on track so you get a smooth, hassle-free renovation experience.
It depends on the scope of work and your property type. In many cases, you won’t need to move out during construction. However, if we’re making significant structural changes, replacing foundations, or doing extensive demolition, temporary relocation may be necessary for safety reasons. At BK Patterson, we’ll work closely with you to create a plan that minimizes disruption while keeping safety and project timelines on track.
An extension can transform your home by adding space, boosting value, and enhancing livability. But it’s crucial to consider how structural changes might impact stability, insulation, ventilation, and natural light. At BK Patterson, our experienced team ensures your extension integrates seamlessly with your existing property. We also manage all necessary permits and comply with regulations, so your project runs smoothly from start to finish.
