Pitched and lean-to roof rear extensions in North Yorkshire
Lean-to, gable and hipped roofs that give a vaulted ceiling. Rear extensions in North Yorkshire: we cover 18 towns including York, Middlesbrough and Harrogate, with design, approvals and the build under one contract.
Pitched roofs suit the cottages and slate-roofed houses in parts of North Yorkshire. North 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 pitched-roof rear extension cost in North Yorkshire?
A pitched-roof rear extension in North Yorkshire is priced at £1,860–£3,020 per square metre including VAT as a guide, before kitchen fit-out and fees. Yorkshire prices sit below our West Midlands baseline; matching natural stone is the main variable.

| 4 m wide × 5 m deep (20 m²) | £37,000–£60,500 |

Do you need planning permission in North Yorkshire?
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.
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?

Slightly, typically a few per cent more than a flat roof of the same area.
