Bungalow rear extension in Bathgate

How much does a bungalow rear extension cost in Bathgate?

A bungalow rear extension in Bathgate is priced at £1,760–£2,850 per square metre including VAT as a guide, before kitchen fit-out and fees. Prices in Scotland sit a little below our West Midlands baseline; building warrant fees and drawings are budgeted separately.

We put a fixed price in writing once the design is agreed, and explain any provisional sums such as foundations.

Do you need planning permission for a bungalow rear extension in Bathgate?

Here is how the rules in Scotland apply to a bungalow rear extension in Bathgate.

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. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development or a planning application, plus the building warrant.

What are homes in Bathgate like to extend?

Bathgate has sandstone villas and terraces, post-war semis and four-in-a-block flats. Flats need planning permission for an extension, and every project needs a building warrant before work starts.
