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

The planning route for a two-storey rear extension in Uttoxeter is set by England's householder rules and your council.

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. 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 Uttoxeter like to extend?

Uttoxeter has a lot of post-war semis and estate houses with long gardens and side access, which makes rear extensions quicker to build.

Can you match the brick or stone on my Uttoxeter 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?
