Pitched and lean-to roof rear extensions in Perth and Kinross
Lean-to, gable and hipped roofs that give a vaulted ceiling. We design and build rear extensions across Perth and Kinross, from Perth and Blairgowrie and Rattray to Crieff, covering single-storey kitchen extensions, two-storey additions, side returns and wraparounds.
Pitched roofs suit the cottages and slate-roofed houses in parts of Perth and Kinross. Post-war semis and terraces are common around Perth and Kinross, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.
