Two-storey rear extension in Bradwell

We plan and build two-storey rear extensions for homeowners in Bradwell. A larger kitchen downstairs and an extra bedroom or bathroom upstairs, under one roof. Start with a free site visit, then a written price once the design is agreed.

Bradwell and its postcode districts NR30 and NR31 are part of our Norfolk coverage. In Norfolk we check the neighbours' rear windows first, because the upper floor is where most two-storey schemes win or lose planning.

Do you need planning permission for a two-storey rear extension in Bradwell?

Planning for a two-storey rear extension in Bradwell 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. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development, prior approval or a planning application.

What are homes in Bradwell like to extend?

Post-war semis and newer estates are typical of Bradwell, and many have room for a full-width extension. Shrinkable clay is common in the East of England, so foundations near trees and hedges are designed to NHBC-style depth guidance.

How a two-storey rear extension in Bradwell comes together

  1. Look round and measure

    A free visit to see the back of the house, measure it, check the drains and boundaries and hear what you need.

  2. Options and costs

    We draw layout options and price each one, so the budget shapes the design rather than surprising you later.

  3. Paperwork handled

    Planning, prior approval or permitted development, Building Regulations approval, structural design and party wall notices are all handled by us.

  4. Written price, then build

    Once the design and approvals are in place, you get a fixed written price and programme, and we build through to sign-off.

FAQ

Two-storey rear extension questions in Bradwell

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

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

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.

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.

Is the site visit in Bradwell free?

Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.

What postcode areas do you cover around Bradwell?

Including NR30 and NR31, and the surrounding Norfolk area.

Do you handle building control in Bradwell?

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