Glazed rear extension in Heswall

How much does a glazed rear extension cost in Heswall?

A glazed rear extension in Heswall is priced at £2,630–£4,510 per square metre including VAT as a guide, before kitchen fit-out and fees. North West prices sit below our West Midlands baseline; access on terraced streets is the main variable.

Ground conditions, glazing, the roof and how far the house is opened up move the final figure within the range.

Do you need planning permission for a glazed rear extension in Heswall?

The planning route for a glazed rear extension in Heswall is set by England's householder rules and your council.

Under England's householder permitted development rules you can usually add 3 metres at the back of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, without a planning application, as long as the extension stays under 4 metres high and its eaves stay under 3 metres where it is 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. 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 Heswall like to extend?
