Goatstown · The area
Why house extensions and attic conversions in Goatstown are a familiar brief.
Goatstown's mixed housing brings mixed extension briefs. The period semis closer to Clonskeagh carry conservation context and need careful detailing on rear extensions, typically held under the 40 sqm threshold and respecting the original rear elevation in massing and material. The post-war detached stock through the centre and the mid-century estate housing toward Mount Merrion carry the standard mid-century extension template: cavity-wall opening up cleanly for a wide steel at the rear, generous gardens supporting full single-storey extensions under the planning exemption, side returns where plot geometry allows. Attic conversions feature regularly across all stocks, with the Goatstown roof pitches typically supporting a rear-dormer scheme. The larger detached homes support double-storey extensions where planning supports. Garage conversions feature for a home office or utility. UCD and RTÉ proximity supports a strong renovation market.
House Extensions, Attic & Garage Conversions · How we run it
House Extensions, Attic & Garage Conversions in Goatstown, the way it should be done.
Extensions are where most clients first speak to us. The reasons vary — a growing family, an attic that has become storage by default rather than design, a 1970s side return that is too cold to use — but the question is always the same: how do we add space to a house that is otherwise lovely, and have it feel like it was always there?
We run extensions end to end. Where you have an architect, we build to their drawings and become the single point of accountability through planning, structural design and construction. Where you do not, we coordinate the architect and engineer ourselves and quote the build to a clear specification before work starts.
Attic conversions are one of our most common projects — adding a bedroom with ensuite to an Irish three-bed semi is one of the highest-value moves a client can make, and it is squarely within our scope. Garage conversions follow the same pattern: insulation, blockwork, plastering, electrics, plumbing and joinery, all run by one team.
The work in Goatstown runs to the same specification we apply everywhere across Dublin and Leinster. Materials, sub-trade coordination, planning context and final certification are all managed from one studio. If your project is on the dublin side of the city, expect site visits within the working week and same-day responses on WhatsApp.
