We want to build a 40 square metre extension to the back of our house. I believe this is the maximum allowed without requiring planning permission.
We would like the extension to join onto our existing kitchen as an open plan extension. Steel (RSJ?) would be required.
The extension is one room with apex roof, lots of veluxe windows or equivalent and glass sliding doors (lots of light).
Access to the back of the house is only through the garage.
It's probably a case of how long is a piece of string but would really appreciate a ballpark.

we had a 40sqm extension done earlier this year, extension came in about 35-40k (to a very high standard) but then we also had a lot of renovation to existing building which came in around the same cost - rewiring, replumbing, plastering, extra insulation etc
the builder we used was excellent, kildare based but travelled up to dublin to work. would highly recommend.
We've recently had a house costed by a Quantity Surveyor at 800K for 4K sqft so in equivalent terms 200/sq.ft ~ €2150/sqm or say €86K.
The QS confirmed you may achieve much better on the spread of tenders but beware - you'll get what you pay for.
For the type of houses he wouldn't use a lower schedule of rates.
Extensions can be more costly because of the works needed to marry in the old with the new, in terms of both structure and insulation.
