Two-storey rear extension in Rhyl

We plan and build two-storey rear extensions for homeowners in Rhyl. 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.

We cover Rhyl (LL18) as part of our North Wales work. Two-storey rear extensions suit semi-detached houses in Rhyl best, where the extra bedroom matters as much as the bigger kitchen.

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

Whether your two-storey rear extension in Rhyl needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.

Welsh rules allow a two-storey rear extension without an application only where the ground floor is no deeper than 4 metres, the upper floor no deeper than 3 metres and at least 10.5 metres remains to the rear boundary. Most homeowners still apply for householder planning permission.

Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, and listed buildings 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 Rhyl like to extend?

Rhyl has Victorian terraces near the centre and semis further out. Welsh permitted development allows up to 4 metres at the rear for many houses.

How a two-storey rear extension in Rhyl 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. Design and guide price

    Two or three layout options with a guide price for each, so you choose the design knowing what it costs.

  3. Approvals

    Permitted development check or householder planning application, then Building Regulations drawings to the Welsh Approved Documents and structural calculations, plus party wall notices where they apply.

  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 Rhyl

Do I need a party wall agreement?

In Wales, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or close to a neighbour's foundations. We serve the notices.

Do you handle building control in Rhyl?

Yes. We apply to the council or a registered approver under the Welsh regulations and hand over the completion certificate.

Is two-storey cheaper per square metre than single-storey?

Usually yes, because the foundations and roof are shared across twice the floor area. The total cost is higher.

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.

How long does a rear extension take to build in Rhyl?

Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.

How much does a two-storey rear extension cost in Rhyl?

As a guide, £1,670–£2,510 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, 3 m × 5 m footprint, two floors (30 m²): about £50,000–£75,500 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.
