Two-storey rear extension in Ingleby Barwick
For homes in Ingleby Barwick, a two-storey rear extension is often the simplest way to gain space without moving. A larger kitchen downstairs and an extra bedroom or bathroom upstairs, under one roof. We take it from survey to completion certificate.
Ingleby Barwick is covered from our North Yorkshire round, including TS15, TS16 and TS17. In North Yorkshire 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 Ingleby Barwick?
Planning for a two-storey rear extension in Ingleby Barwick follows the English householder rules.
England's rules allow a rear extension of more than one storey without an application only when it is no deeper than 3 metres and at least 7 metres from the boundary opposite the rear wall, and never on designated land. Most two-storey schemes need householder planning permission.
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 Ingleby Barwick like to extend?
Brick terraces, colliery houses and post-war semis make up much of Ingleby Barwick. Former mining areas often need a coal mining risk check before foundations are designed.
