Do you need planning permission for a two-storey rear extension in Staveley?
Planning for a two-storey rear extension in Staveley follows the English householder rules.
A two-storey rear extension can be permitted development in England only if it projects no more than 3 metres, stays at least 7 metres from the rear boundary, matches the existing roof pitch and has obscure-glazed upper side windows. In practice most double-storey rear extensions go through a householder planning application.
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 Staveley like to extend?
Red-brick terraces and semis are typical of Staveley. Coal-mining legacy areas in parts of the East Midlands can need a Coal Authority check before foundations are designed.

FAQ
Two-storey rear extension questions in Staveley
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.
How much does a two-storey rear extension cost in Staveley?
As a guide, £1,750–£2,620 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, 3 m × 5 m footprint, two floors (30 m²): about £52,500–£78,500 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.
Can it be built on a terraced house?
Sometimes, but the upper floor is harder to get through planning on a terrace because of the effect on neighbours. A single-storey extension with a loft conversion is often an easier route.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Staveley?
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.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Staveley house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
