Do you need planning permission for a two-storey rear extension in Eastwood?
Whether your two-storey rear extension in Eastwood needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
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. 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 Eastwood like to extend?
Red-brick terraces and semis are typical of Eastwood. 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 Eastwood
Can you match the brick or stone on my Eastwood house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
How long does a rear extension take to build in Eastwood?
Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
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.
How much does a two-storey rear extension cost in Eastwood?
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.
Do you handle building control in Eastwood?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
Will I need a structural engineer?
Yes for the beam over the new opening and usually the foundations; we arrange them and their calculations go to building control.
