Do you need planning permission for a glazed rear extension in Wishaw?
Here is how the rules in Scotland apply to a glazed rear extension in Wishaw.
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 Wishaw like to extend?
Post-war semis and terraces are common around Wishaw, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.
