Do you need planning permission for a kitchen-diner rear extension in Fraserburgh?
Whether your kitchen-diner rear extension in Fraserburgh needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
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.
Scotland has no larger-extension prior approval route; extensions beyond permitted development need a planning application.
Classes 1A and 1B do not apply in conservation areas, and listed buildings 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 Fraserburgh like to extend?
Fraserburgh has sandstone villas and terraces, post-war semis and four-in-a-block flats. Flats need planning permission for an extension, and every project needs a building warrant before work starts.

Kitchen-diner rear extension questions in Fraserburgh

Do you fit the kitchen?
Yes, whether you buy it yourself or we supply it. We take the measurements from the built shell, not the drawings.
Will I need a structural engineer?
Yes for the beam over the new opening and usually the foundations; we arrange them and their calculations go to building control.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Fraserburgh house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
How long does a rear extension take to build in Fraserburgh?
Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
