Established in 2002, Malcolm Tait Builders are a small and dedicated family run business operating primarily in the North East of England. We offer guaranteed start dates and realistic completion dates. 99% of our projects are completed ahead of schedule.

With over 22 years of experience in the building trade, proprietor Malcolm Tait prides himself in providing a complete and stress free service for all kinds of building projects.

Malcolm himself carries out all of the building work whilst project managing the entire job from start to finish. The co-ordinating of time-served skilled tradesmen is all part of the complete package to ensure the smooth completion of all projects.

Malcolm Tait Builder will take the hard work out of your new building project. We can put you in touch with an architect who can draw up your plans if required. We will also guide through the entire process and help you if you are unsure of any uncertainties.

90% of our work can be classed as general house extensions, these typically include:

* Bedroom and ensuite to first floor
* Rear sun lounge/family room/snug
* Kitchen and/or utility area to rear
* Downstairs WC
* Garage

Typical costs start from around £30k and rise to approx. £60k incl. VAT depending on your specific requirements. Each project is different and accurate costs can only be given once your plans are in place.
House extensions

There are certain regulations that both single and two storey extensions must comply with. In most cases, they should not bring the building any closer to an existing road. Single storey extensions with a flat roof should be no higher than 3 metres; or 4 metres if they have a pitched roof. The roof of a two storey extension should be no higher than the existing building.

Conservatories

The rules are slightly different for conservatories, which makes them a very cost effective way of adding extra space. The majority of conservatories will not need planning permission.

Patio's

Generally a new driveway or patio area does not require building regulations approval. However, you will need to make sure that any alterations do not make access to the dwelling any less satisfactory than it was before. So, for example, changing levels to introduce steps where none existed before would be a contravention of the regulations.
