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

Planning for a kitchen-diner rear extension in Hartshill follows the English householder rules.

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.

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 Hartshill like to extend?

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

Kitchen-diner rear extension questions in Hartshill

Do you handle building control in Hartshill?

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

Who will build my extension?

Vetted building teams working under contract to us. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd for the design and the build.

Can I have underfloor heating?

Yes. Wet underfloor heating in the new screed is the usual choice, often with the old room's radiators kept or replaced.

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.

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.

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.
