Glasgow charges much the same as Edinburgh, and Aberdeen much the same. Many builders cover all three areas, so quotes often converge once travel is priced in — the AI accounts for this automatically.
The estimate is calibrated for Edinburgh and the wider Scotland area, including Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dundee. If your property falls just outside Edinburgh, mention the town or postcode when you describe the job and the AI adjusts the rate to match.
Many single-storey rear extensions fall under permitted development, but larger builds, second storeys, and anything in a conservation area need planning permission. The AI estimate flags likely planning costs so you can budget correctly.
A standard single-storey rear extension usually takes 10–14 weeks from first dig to handover, assuming no foundation surprises. Loft conversions typically run 8–12 weeks.
