Pitched and lean-to roof rear extensions in Lincolnshire
Lean-to, gable and hipped roofs that give a vaulted ceiling. Across Lincolnshire we handle the whole rear extension: survey, drawings, the planning route, building control and the build. Towns we cover here include Lincoln, Grimsby and Scunthorpe.
Pitched roofs suit the cottages and slate-roofed houses in parts of Lincolnshire. Lincolnshire has plenty of inter-war semis and bungalows, and single-storey rear extensions suit both.
How much does a pitched-roof rear extension cost in Lincolnshire?
A pitched-roof rear extension in Lincolnshire is priced at £1,940–£3,150 per square metre including VAT as a guide, before kitchen fit-out and fees. East Midlands prices sit a little below our West Midlands baseline.
| Size | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| 3 m wide × 4 m deep (12 m²) | £23,500–£38,000 |
| 4 m wide × 5 m deep (20 m²) | £39,000–£63,000 |
Ground conditions, glazing, the roof and how far the house is opened up move the final figure within the range.
Do you need planning permission in Lincolnshire?
Under England's householder permitted development rules you can usually add 3 metres at the back of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, without a planning application, as long as the extension stays under 4 metres high and its eaves stay under 3 metres where it is within 2 metres of a boundary.
Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent.

FAQ
Questions people ask
Will a lean-to fit under my windows?
We check the sill heights at the survey; low windows usually mean a flat roof instead.
Are roof windows allowed?
Yes; they are the usual way to bring light into a pitched-roof extension.
Is a pitched roof more expensive?
Slightly, typically a few per cent more than a flat roof of the same area.
Do you cover all of Lincolnshire?
We cover 17 towns and districts in Lincolnshire, including Lincoln, Grimsby and Scunthorpe.
