Bungalow rear extension in Boston
We plan and build rear extensions for bungalows for homeowners in Boston. Single-storey rear extensions that keep everything on one level. Start with a free site visit, then a written price once the design is agreed.
We cover Boston (PE21) as part of our Lincolnshire work. For Boston bungalows we design the roof first, because the low eaves decide the height of the new room.

Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.
Do you need planning permission for a bungalow rear extension in Boston?
Whether your bungalow rear extension in Boston needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
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 Boston like to extend?
Boston has plenty of inter-war semis and bungalows, and single-storey rear extensions suit both.

FAQ
Bungalow rear extension questions in Boston
How long does a rear extension take to build in Boston?
Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
How much does a bungalow rear extension cost in Boston?
As a guide, £1,790–£2,910 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, 3 m wide × 4 m deep (12 m²): about £21,500–£35,000 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.
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 live at home while the extension is built?
Usually yes. Most of the work is outside until the back wall is opened near the end, and that stage is screened off.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In England, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or the foundations are close to a neighbour's building. We serve the notices.
Is the site visit in Boston free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
