Pitched and lean-to roof rear extensions in Nottinghamshire
Lean-to, gable and hipped roofs that give a vaulted ceiling. We design and build rear extensions across Nottinghamshire, from Nottingham and Mansfield to Worksop, covering single-storey kitchen extensions, two-storey additions, side returns and wraparounds.

Pitched roofs suit the cottages and slate-roofed houses in parts of Nottinghamshire. Nottinghamshire 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 Nottinghamshire?
A pitched-roof rear extension in Nottinghamshire 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 Nottinghamshire?
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.
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.

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