Bungalow rear extension in Burnage

How much does a bungalow rear extension cost in Burnage?

Guide prices for a bungalow rear extension in Burnage start from our North West England rate of £1,740–£2,820 per square metre, including VAT. North West prices sit below our West Midlands baseline; access on terraced streets is the main variable.

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 Burnage?

Planning for a bungalow rear extension in Burnage follows the English householder rules.

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.

Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development, prior approval or a planning application.

What are homes in Burnage like to extend?

Stone and brick terraces are common around Burnage. Where houses back onto a ginnel or alley, deliveries can come in from the rear, which makes the build tidier.
