Glazed rear extension in High Peak
We plan and build glazed and glass-box rear extensions for homeowners in High Peak. Full-height glass, slim frames and big rooflights for the most open rear room. Start with a free site visit, then a written price once the design is agreed.
High Peak is covered from our Derbyshire round, including SK23. A wide sliding door with one long rooflight, rather than a fully glazed roof, keeps a glass-led extension usable in summer.

Do you need planning permission for a glazed rear extension in High Peak?
Planning for a glazed rear extension in High Peak follows the English householder rules.
English permitted development (Class A) allows a single-storey rear extension of 3 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 4 metres on a detached one, measured from the original house, with a maximum height of 4 metres and eaves of no more than 3 metres within 2 metres of a boundary.
New fabric must meet Approved Document L (2021 edition incorporating 2023 amendments): walls 0.18, roof 0.15 and floor 0.18 W/m²K, windows 1.4 W/m²K or Band B. Under the simple route, new windows, doors and rooflights should not exceed 25% of the extension floor area plus any openings removed; more glass is possible with a whole-house calculation.
Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.
What are homes in High Peak like to extend?
High Peak has plenty of inter-war semis and bungalows, and single-storey rear extensions suit both.

FAQ
Glazed rear extension questions in High Peak
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in High Peak?
Often not for a single-storey rear extension of up to 3 metres (4 metres on a detached house) under permitted development, or up to 6 or 8 metres with prior approval, unless the house is in a conservation area or its rights have been removed.
Can you match the brick or stone on my High Peak house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
Sliding or bifold doors?
Sliders give bigger panes and slimmer sightlines; bifolds open the whole width. Our guide compares them.
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.
What postcode areas do you cover around High Peak?
Including SK23, and the surrounding Derbyshire area.
Do you handle building control in High Peak?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
