Why Choose Our Oak Frame Extensions

Client Testimonial

"I have used Antony Hicks three times now on projects and I have recommended them to several friends who have also used their services. There are many people professing to build this type of structure and the magazines are littered with such adverts. However none of them in my opinion match the design and finish that Anthony Hicks can provide."

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need planning permission for an oak frame extension in Kent?
Yes, in most cases you will need planning permission, particularly if your home is listed, in a conservation area, or if the extension significantly alters the appearance of the building. At Anthony Hicks, we have extensive experience navigating the planning process across Kent and Sussex. We work closely with local authorities and conservation officers to ensure your oak frame extension is designed sympathetically and submitted with the best chance of approval.

Can you match my oak extension to an existing period or listed property?
Absolutely. We can often design oak-framed extensions to blend seamlessly with heritage buildings. Whether your home is Grade II listed or simply has traditional character, we take great care to honour the architectural style, proportions, and materials of the original structure. Our in-house craftsmen and designers will ensure your extension feels like a natural part of your home, not an afterthought.
