Extension quote a bit steep?

@Temp we have one knock through on the gable wall through from the existing kitchen to give access to the utility room at the side of the house and we have an existing set of patio doors that are being removed with I’m sure new steels inserted to give us the access to the new living/dining area with another small bit demolition to give us a larger kitchen window but that’s the extent of the demo work. Corner of the house is staying intact, we deliberately tried to avoid amending the bones of of the house as much as possible to keep the costs down.

@Andehh our build started about 6 weeks ago and we found a builder who suggested a few design changes that reduced the amount of structural steel and support work work needed for the back of the house while still getting the 95% of what we want to achieve, we're doing a few things ourselves such as painting and 2nd fix joinery and have had to postpone the patio area and fencing until next year to come in on budget and we can work on replenishing our savings. Our total budget has now creeped up to £90k.
