From drawings to shell price

SIP Extension Shell Packages

A drawing-led SIP shell route for house extensions where U-values, structural openings, roof design and Building Control need to be handled clearly.

House extension SIP shell concept

Likely starting point

172mm is the usual starting point for habitable extension walls/roofs; 222mm may be used for stronger roof thermal performance.

Extension customers often have drawings but need a practical SIP shell price without confusing it with windows, finishes, foundations or approval fees.

What can be included

SIP wall and roof package from drawings
Openings priced from confirmed sizes
Support allowance shown as provisional unless engineer-confirmed
Delivery, installation and third-party goods separated

Why SIP for this project

Why this route works as a SIP build

01

SIP panels suit extensions because they create an insulated habitable shell quickly, reducing time before the structure can be made weather-tight.

02

Pricing from drawings allows openings, roof shape and structural assumptions to be separated from windows, cladding, finishes and services.

03

A clear SIP package makes it easier for Building Control, engineers and installers to see what is being supplied and what is by others.

Useful upgrades

  • Technical drawing package
  • Engineer coordination
  • Installation partner quote
  • Delivery/offloading plan

Checks before ordering

  • Extensions normally need Building Control.
  • Structural calculations should be confirmed by an engineer.
  • Windows, doors, rooflights, cladding and finishes should be quoted separately unless included.
