House Extensions in Dorset

Considered, high-specification extensions across the whole of Dorset

From dense residential streets in Poole and Bournemouth to rural properties near Wimborne and Wareham, Dorset’s variety means no two extension projects look quite the same. Morgan Design & Construction delivers single-storey, double-storey and wraparound extensions across the whole county, each one designed to suit its specific site and setting.

Dorset spans several planning authorities and includes areas of outstanding natural beauty and conservation areas, particularly around the coast. Our in-house design team has extensive experience navigating planning applications across these different areas, helping guide extension projects smoothly through the process wherever in Dorset they’re based.
