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

The planning route for a bungalow rear extension in Egham is set by England's householder rules and your council.

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. 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 Egham like to extend?

Commuter semis and detached houses make up much of Egham, and longer gardens make England's prior approval route for deeper rear extensions worth considering.

FAQ

Bungalow rear extension questions in Egham

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.

Can a bungalow extension be fully accessible?

Yes: level thresholds, wider doors and a wet room are straightforward to design in.

Do you handle building control in Egham?

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

Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Egham?

Often not for a single-storey rear extension of up to 3 metres (4 metres on a detached house) under permitted development, or up to 6 or 8 metres with prior approval, unless the house is in a conservation area or its rights have been removed.

Who will build my extension?

Vetted building teams working under contract to us. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd for the design and the build.
