Do builders in the East Midlands need to be registered?
There's no single licence to be a builder, but trustworthy builders carry public liability insurance and often belong to bodies like the FMB (Federation of Master Builders) or TrustMark. Structural and building-regs work must be signed off by Building Control.
How long does an extension take?
A typical single-storey rear extension runs about 8–12 weeks once on site, depending on size, groundworks and weather. Your builder should give you a stage-by-stage schedule up front.
