Glazed rear extension in Pudsey

For homes in Pudsey, a glazed rear extension is often the simplest way to gain space without moving. Full-height glass, slim frames and big rooflights for the most open rear room. We take it from survey to completion certificate.

We cover Pudsey (LS12, LS13 and LS28) as part of our West Yorkshire work. Glass-led rear extensions in Pudsey are planned around which way the garden faces, because that decides the glass specification.

Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.

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

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

In England a single-storey rear extension can often be built under permitted development: up to 3 metres beyond the original rear wall of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, no higher than 4 metres, with eaves no higher than 3 metres if any part 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 Pudsey like to extend?

Pudsey has through terraces and some back-to-backs as well as later semis; back-to-backs have little or no rear space, so we look at side or loft options there.
