Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.
Do you need planning permission for a glazed rear extension in Kilmarnock?
The planning route for a glazed rear extension in Kilmarnock is set by Scotland's householder rules and your council.
Scottish householder permitted development (Class 1A) covers many single-storey rear extensions, with a 3 metre eaves limit, a 4 metre height limit and, within 1 metre of a boundary, a depth limit of 3 metres for terraced houses or 4 metres for others. Conservation areas are excluded, and you need a building warrant whatever the planning position.
Insulation and glazing follow Section 6 of the Scottish Technical Handbook; the building warrant drawings show how the extension meets it.
Classes 1A and 1B do not apply in conservation areas, and listed buildings need listed building consent. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development or a planning application, plus the building warrant.
What are homes in Kilmarnock like to extend?
Post-war semis and terraces are common around Kilmarnock, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.

FAQ
Glazed rear extension questions in Kilmarnock
Who will build my extension?
Vetted building teams working under contract to us. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd for the design and the build.
Do you handle building control in Kilmarnock?
Yes. We apply for the building warrant before work starts and submit the completion certificate at the end.
Will a glass extension be too hot?
Not if it is designed for its orientation, with solar-control glass, shading and ventilation.
What postcode areas do you cover around Kilmarnock?
Including KA1, and the surrounding Ayrshire area.
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.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
Scotland has no Party Wall Act; we agree access and protection with your neighbour in writing instead.
