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

Here is how the rules in England apply to a bungalow rear extension in Fazakerley.

In England a single-storey rear extension can often be built under permitted development: up to 3 metres beyond the original rear wall of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, no higher than 4 metres, with eaves no higher than 3 metres if any part is 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. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.

What are homes in Fazakerley like to extend?

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

FAQ

Bungalow rear extension questions in Fazakerley

Will I need a structural engineer?

Yes for the beam over the new opening and usually the foundations; we arrange them and their calculations go to building control.

Can you match the brick or stone on my Fazakerley house?

We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.

Can I extend the loft as well?

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

Can I get a price without a visit?

Our online guide-price tool gives a range in a couple of minutes. A written price needs a survey.

Do you handle building control in Fazakerley?

Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.

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.
