Renovation Company Horsforth
Home extensions, loft conversions, kitchens, bathrooms and bespoke joinery for Horsforth. MCR Joinery works on stone terraces, Victorian houses and family homes across LS18, with a free home consultation and itemised quotation.
Horsforth is a popular, well-connected suburb on the north-western edge of Leeds, with its own busy town centre on New Road Side and Town Street. Housing ranges from stone-built terraces and cottages in the older centre, through Victorian and Edwardian family houses, to extensive 1930s and later estates on the slopes towards Cookridge and Rawdon. Families tend to stay here for a long time, so improving the existing house is a common choice.
That produces a steady need for more space and better-organised space. We are regularly asked about kitchen extensions that connect a dated kitchen to the garden, loft conversions that add a bedroom and bathroom (see our loft conversion guide), and the re-planning of ground floors so that family life is not squeezed into separate small rooms. Bathrooms are renewed in the same way, and the details we think matter are set out in our bathroom renovation guide.
All the joinery that makes these projects feel finished, including fitted wardrobes, media walls, staircases and doors, can be made and fitted by our team. See our services for more detail, or compare costs in the Leeds renovation cost guide.
Yes. MCR Joinery works throughout Horsforth and the LS18 postcode area, from the older streets around the town centre to the residential roads leading up to Cookridge. The journey from our LS17 base is straightforward, and we can arrange a free home visit to suit your diary.

Begin your home transformation by getting in touch with our friendly team. Call us on +44 7854 317260 or use our contact form to tell us about your project. We'll offer initial advice and arrange a convenient time for your free home consultation in Horsforth
Our qualified project manager will visit your Horsforth property to carry out a thorough assessment and take all necessary measurements. We'll discuss the best approach for your extension or renovation, advise on planning permission requirements where relevant, and provide a detailed, itemised quotation tailored to your home and budget.
Once you've approved your quote and chosen your preferred finishes and materials, our experienced building and joinery team will get to work. We manage the full process from groundworks through to the finishing touches, keeping you informed at every stage and ensuring a clean, tidy site throughout.
A town with such a mix of property ages deserves a flexible approach. Older stone houses need sensitive detailing and often a breathable approach to repairs, while 1930s and later houses are better suited to modern extension methods. Our first step is always to understand the building as it stands, and then we recommend a design that suits it.
In Horsforth, parts of the housing sit on sloping ground, and gardens can be terraced or restricted by retaining walls. That can affect how an extension is positioned and how groundworks are carried out, so we survey the plot as well as the house when we measure up.
Our team will manage the stages in a sensible order: structure and roof first, then first-fix services, plastering, joinery installation, and finally decoration and snagging, so that you know what is happening each week.

Often, yes. Many of these houses can take a rear dormer, subject to permitted development limits or planning permission and to building regulations approval for structure, stairs, fire safety and insulation.
