Love your home but need more room?

Ever looked around your kitchen and wished you could just push the walls back a few feet? Maybe the kids are getting older and need their own space, or perhaps you're finally ready for that open-plan living area you've seen on every home improvement show. Moving house in Aberdeen is a massive headache—between the solicitors' fees, stamp duty, and the sheer stress of packing, it's often more trouble than it's worth. That's where we come in. At P D Roofing & Building Contractors, we help homeowners across Aberdeenshire turn the house they have into the home they've always wanted. Whether you're in a traditional granite terrace in the city or a modern detached home in Westhill, a well-planned extension is the smartest way to add both floor space and significant value to your property.

Why Choose Us

Why Choose Our Expert Building Services & Home Extensions in Aberdeen?

Create the perfect space for your lifestyle.

What does your dream extension look like? Most homeowners we speak to are looking for that elusive 'open-concept' kitchen and diner where the whole family can hang out together. Others need a quiet, dedicated home office or a bright sunroom to enjoy the North East sunshine (when it decides to appear). We don't do 'one size fits all' building work. We've spent years matching local granite to ensure new extensions look like they've always been part of the original building, but we're just as comfortable installing sleek, modern wrap-around extensions with massive bi-fold doors. From simple single-storey rear extensions to complex double-storey additions that add multiple bedrooms, we've got the tools and the local experience to make it happen.

We handle everything from foundations to finishes.

Taking on a building project can feel like a part-time job if you're trying to manage different trades yourself. Why bother with the stress? We provide a 'one-stop-shop' service, meaning you only ever have to deal with us. We'll start with the groundworks and footings, ensuring your foundations are rock solid. Then comes the exciting part: the structural work. If you're looking to knock through walls for that airy feel, we'll install the necessary RSJs (steel beams) to keep everything safe and sound. We manage the 'First Fix' (the internal skeletons like stud walls and wiring), move through to the 'Second Fix' (plasterboarding and joinery), and stay right through to the 'Third Fix' decorative finishes. You won't be left chasing a plumber or wondering when the electrician is going to show up—we coordinate the whole team.

Navigating building warrants without the headache.

One of the biggest questions we get asked is: 'Do I need planning permission?' In Scotland, the rules can be a bit specific. Most structural changes will require a Building Warrant from Aberdeenshire Council or Aberdeen City Council to ensure everything meets safety and energy standards. Depending on the size of your extension, you might also need planning permission. Don't let the paperwork put you off. We've been working in this area for years and can help guide you through the process, ensuring your project is fully compliant from day one. We'll make sure your new space is wrapped in a high-quality breathable membrane and top-tier insulation, keeping you cosy during those biting North East winters while keeping your energy bills in check.

Trusted builders for Aberdeen and the North East.

Choosing a builder is a big decision—you're trusting someone with your biggest asset, after all. We've built our reputation across places like Bridge of Don, Ellon, Stonehaven, and Inverurie by being honest, reliable, and incredibly tidy. We know that living in a house while work is ongoing can be a bit of a juggle, so we make it our mission to keep the site organised and respect your space. We aren't just here to lay bricks; we're here to build the extra bedroom your growing family needs or the sun-drenched lounge you'll relax in every evening. With decades of local experience and full public liability insurance, you can rest easy knowing your home is in safe, professional hands.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our home extension and building services in Aberdeen & North East Scotland

Will I need planning permission for my home extension in Aberdeen?

+

It depends on the size and where your house is located. Many smaller extensions fall under "permitted development," which means you won't need full planning permission. However, almost every extension in Scotland needs a building warrant to prove it meets safety standards. We help you check with Aberdeenshire Council so you know exactly what is required before any work begins.

How much does a house extension cost in Aberdeenshire?

+

The cost varies based on the size, the materials you choose, and what the room will be used for. A kitchen extension usually costs more than a simple sunroom because of the plumbing and electrical work. We provide a detailed, fixed quote after a site visit so you can plan your budget without any nasty surprises.

Is an attic conversion cheaper than a property extension?

+

Usually, yes. Since the main structure of the roof is already there, a loft conversion can be a more cost-effective way to add a bedroom compared to building new foundations and walls for an extension. It is one of the best ways to add value to your home without losing any of your garden space.

Can I convert my garage into a living space?

+

Garage conversions are a very popular choice for homeowners in Aberdeen. If you have an integral or attached garage you don't use for a car, we can turn it into a playroom, office, or extra lounge. This is often faster and more affordable than a traditional extension.

How long do most home improvements in Aberdeenshire take to finish?

+

A small project like a garage conversion might take three to four weeks, while a large two-storey extension could take several months. We give you a realistic timeline at the start and keep you updated throughout the build so you can plan around the work.

What is the difference between a sunroom and a conservatory?

+

A conservatory usually has a transparent roof and lots of glass, while a sunroom is built more like a traditional extension with a solid, tiled roof and insulated walls. Sunrooms are much better for the Aberdeen climate because they stay warm in the winter and don't overheat when the sun finally comes out.
