Glazed rear extension in Kimberley
Full-height glass, slim frames and big rooflights for the most open rear room. We design, get the approvals for and build glazed and glass-box rear extensions in Kimberley and the surrounding area, with one contract from the first survey to building control sign-off.
We cover Kimberley (DE7) as part of our Nottinghamshire work. 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 Kimberley?
The planning route for a glazed rear extension in Kimberley is set by England's householder rules and your council.
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 Kimberley like to extend?
Kimberley has plenty of inter-war semis and bungalows, and single-storey rear extensions suit both.

FAQ
Glazed rear extension questions in Kimberley
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In England, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or the foundations are close to a neighbour's building. We serve the notices.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Kimberley?
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.
Does glass need planning permission?
The same rules apply as any rear extension; glass does not change the depth or height limits.
