Kitchen-diner rear extension in Wednesfield
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 Wednesfield and the surrounding area, with one contract from the first survey to building control sign-off.
We cover Wednesfield (WV10, WV11 and WV14) as part of our West Midlands work. For Wednesfield 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 Wednesfield?
The planning route for a kitchen-diner rear extension in Wednesfield 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.
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 Wednesfield like to extend?
Red-brick terraces and 1930s semis make up much of Wednesfield. Many already have a small kitchen lean-to at the back, which a new rear extension usually replaces rather than adds to.
