Do you need planning permission for a bungalow rear extension in Kidderminster?
Planning for a bungalow rear extension in Kidderminster follows the English householder rules.
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 Kidderminster like to extend?
Red-brick terraces and 1930s semis make up much of Kidderminster. Many already have a small kitchen lean-to at the back, which a new rear extension usually replaces rather than adds to.

FAQ
Bungalow rear extension questions in Kidderminster
Can you match the brick or stone on my Kidderminster house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
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.
Do I need to move out?
Rarely; the opening into the bungalow is made late in the build.
What postcode areas do you cover around Kidderminster?
Including DY10 and DY11, and the surrounding Worcestershire area.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Kidderminster?
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.
Do you handle building control in Kidderminster?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
