Planning rules for Dukinfield

English permitted development (Class A) allows a single-storey rear extension of 3 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 4 metres on a detached one, measured from the original house, with a maximum height of 4 metres and eaves of no more than 3 metres within 2 metres of a boundary.

England also has the larger home extension route: a single-storey rear extension of up to 6 metres on an attached house or 8 metres on a detached house, after prior approval from the council. The council notifies your neighbours and has 42 days to decide; the fee is £249 (£310 for applications made from 8 December 2026). The route is not available on designated land such as conservation areas.

Planning and Building Regulations are separate in England: even a permitted development extension is inspected for foundations, drainage, structure, insulation, fire safety and ventilation, through the council or a registered building control approver, ending with a completion certificate.
