1 to 2 months a builder shouldn’t take the job on if they are to busy to do it within that time frame.

Most builders like myself would be finishing off a job via quoting one. So id normally give month notice to get stuff in place and ordered .

Depending on the size or stories of the extension 2/6 months, bigger 2 story extension take more planning and structural engineers maybe needed! In most case work can start within 2 months
