Some of the most common problems people run into during a house extension include poor waterproofing, inadequate footings, and issues where the new structure meets the existing one.
Roof junctions are a frequent source of leaks if not detailed correctly, and damp can become a problem when drainage around the new slab is not properly managed. Structural movement or cracking can occur if the footing design does not suit the soil conditions on your block.
Delays caused by late material deliveries or trades not showing up on schedule are also a reality on many jobs. Poor communication between the homeowner and builder often makes these issues worse. Working with an experienced team from the start helps avoid most of these headaches.
Mitroteam Projects takes care to address these risks early in the planning process.
