Two-storey rear extension in Pudsey
For homes in Pudsey, 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.
We cover Pudsey (LS12, LS13 and LS28) as part of our West Yorkshire work. Two-storey rear extensions suit semi-detached houses in Pudsey best, where the extra bedroom matters as much as the bigger kitchen.

Do you need planning permission for a two-storey rear extension in Pudsey?
The planning route for a two-storey rear extension in Pudsey 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 Pudsey like to extend?
Pudsey has through terraces and some back-to-backs as well as later semis; back-to-backs have little or no rear space, so we look at side or loft options there.
