Do you need planning permission for a glazed rear extension in Strabane?
Here is how the rules in Northern Ireland apply to a glazed rear extension in Strabane.
In Northern Ireland the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order (Northern Ireland) 2015 allows a single-storey rear extension of up to 3 metres on an attached house or 4 metres on a detached house, no higher than 4 metres, with eaves no higher than 3 metres within 2 metres of a boundary. Building control approval from the council is still required.
Insulation and glazing follow Technical Booklet F1 in Northern Ireland, checked by council building control.
Conservation areas, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and listed buildings restrict permitted development in Northern Ireland. We check your house's planning history and any conservation area before drawing, so the route is clear before you spend on plans.
