For Dundee bungalows we design the roof first, because the low eaves decide the height of the new room. Post-war semis and terraces are common around Dundee and Angus, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.

In Dundee and Angus, our guide for a bungalow rear extension is £1,760–£2,850 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. Prices in Scotland sit a little below our West Midlands baseline; building warrant fees and drawings are budgeted separately.

Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.

Do you need planning permission in Dundee and Angus?

In Scotland a single-storey rear extension can be permitted development under Class 1A: eaves no higher than 3 metres and an overall height of 4 metres, and where any part is within 1 metre of a boundary it can project no more than 3 metres on a terraced house or 4 metres on other houses. The rights do not apply in conservation areas, and a building warrant is still needed before work starts.

Scotland has no larger-extension prior approval route; extensions beyond permitted development need a planning application.

Classes 1A and 1B do not apply in conservation areas, and listed buildings need listed building consent.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Can a bungalow extension be fully accessible?

Yes: level thresholds, wider doors and a wet room are straightforward to design in.

Will the roof look odd?

Not if the pitch and tiles match. Where the eaves are low, a flat-roofed section with a lantern is an alternative.

Can I extend the loft as well?

Sometimes, but that is a different project; a rear extension keeps everything on one level.

Do you cover all of Dundee and Angus?

We cover 6 towns and districts in Dundee and Angus, including Dundee, Arbroath and Forfar.

Who builds the extension?

Vetted building teams working under contract to us; your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd.
