FAQ — hiring a builder in Brighton
How much does a builder cost in Brighton?▾
Builders in Brighton typically work on day rates of £200–£400 per labourer. Full extension projects are quoted as a fixed price — usually £1,800–£3,000 per m² depending on spec.
Do I need planning permission?▾
Many extensions in Brighton fall under Permitted Development, but it depends on size, location and conservation status. A reputable builder will help you check before quoting.
Will the builder hire other tradespeople?▾
Most main builders manage the full project — bringing in plumbers, electricians, plasterers and roofers as needed. Confirm in writing whether their quote covers all sub-trades.
How long do extensions take in Brighton?▾
A single-storey rear extension typically takes 10–16 weeks from breaking ground to completion. Two-storey work and structural changes can take 4–6 months.
