Bungalow rear extension in Tamworth

How much does a bungalow rear extension cost in Tamworth?

In Tamworth, our guide for a bungalow rear extension is £1,850–£3,000 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. The West Midlands is the baseline for our guide prices.

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 Tamworth?

Whether your bungalow rear extension in Tamworth needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.

Under England's householder permitted development rules you can usually add 3 metres at the back of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, without a planning application, as long as the extension stays under 4 metres high and its eaves stay under 3 metres where it is within 2 metres of a boundary.

If 3 or 4 metres is not enough, England's prior approval route allows 6 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 8 metres on a detached house for a single-storey rear extension. Neighbours are consulted, the council decides within 42 days, and the fee is £249, rising to £310 from 8 December 2026.

Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. We check your house's planning history and any conservation area before drawing, so the route is clear before you spend on plans.

What are homes in Tamworth like to extend?

Red-brick terraces and 1930s semis make up much of Tamworth. Many already have a small kitchen lean-to at the back, which a new rear extension usually replaces rather than adds to.

1. Free site visit

   We measure the house and garden, look at the back wall, drainage and boundaries, and talk through what you want from the space.
