East Riding of Yorkshire
Larger home extension prior approval (England) in the East Riding of Yorkshire
Up to 6 m (attached) or 8 m (detached) deep, after neighbour consultation. Across the East Riding of Yorkshire we handle the whole rear extension: survey, drawings, the planning route, building control and the build. Towns we cover here include Kingston upon Hull, Bridlington and Beverley.
East Riding of Yorkshire 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.
How much does a prior approval rear extension cost in the East Riding of Yorkshire?
In the East Riding of Yorkshire, our guide for a prior approval rear extension is £1,770–£2,880 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. Yorkshire prices sit below our West Midlands baseline; matching natural stone is the main variable.

| 4 m wide × 5 m deep (20 m²) | £35,500–£57,500 |

These are guide ranges; the written quote after the survey is the figure that counts.
Do you need planning permission in the East Riding of Yorkshire?
England also has the larger home extension route: a single-storey rear extension of up to 6 metres on an attached house or 8 metres on a detached house, after prior approval from the council. The council notifies your neighbours and has 42 days to decide; the fee is £249 (£310 for applications made from 8 December 2026). The route is not available on designated land such as conservation areas.
Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent.
