Do you need planning permission for a glazed rear extension in Prestatyn?
The planning route for a glazed rear extension in Prestatyn is set by Wales's householder rules and your council.
In Wales a single-storey rear extension can often be permitted development if it projects no more than 4 metres beyond the rear wall and is no more than 4 metres high. Wales has no prior approval route for deeper extensions, so anything bigger needs a householder planning application.
Wales has its own Approved Document L, with targets for walls, roofs, floors and glazing similar to but not identical with England's. Heavily glazed designs are checked with a calculation.
Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, 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 householder planning application.
What are homes in Prestatyn like to extend?
Prestatyn has Victorian terraces near the centre and semis further out. Welsh permitted development allows up to 4 metres at the rear for many houses.
