Kitchen-diner rear extension in Atherstone

An open-plan kitchen, dining and family room that opens straight onto the garden. We design, get the approvals for and build kitchen-diner rear extensions in Atherstone and the surrounding area, with one contract from the first survey to building control sign-off.

Atherstone and its postcode districts CV9 are part of our Warwickshire coverage. For Atherstone kitchens we plan the extraction route and the island drainage before the slab is poured, so nothing has to be chased in later.

Do you need planning permission for a kitchen-diner rear extension in Atherstone?

Here is how the rules in England apply to a kitchen-diner rear extension in Atherstone.

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.

If 3 or 4 metres is not enough, England's prior approval route allows 6 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 8 metres on a detached house for a single-storey rear extension. Neighbours are consulted, the council decides within 42 days, and the fee is £249, rising to £310 from 8 December 2026.

Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development, prior approval or a planning application.

What are homes in Atherstone like to extend?

Red-brick terraces and 1930s semis make up much of Atherstone. Many already have a small kitchen lean-to at the back, which a new rear extension usually replaces rather than adds to.

FAQ

Kitchen-diner rear extension questions in Atherstone

What postcode areas do you cover around Atherstone?

Including CV9, and the surrounding Warwickshire area.

Do you handle building control in Atherstone?

Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.

Should the sink face the garden?

If the plan allows, an island sink or hob facing the glass is a common choice. It needs a floor-level drain run, which is easy to lay in a new slab.

Can you match the brick or stone on my Atherstone house?

We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.

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.

Can I get a price without a visit?

Our online guide-price tool gives a range in a couple of minutes. A written price needs a survey.
