Rear extension planning drawings in Middlewich

What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Middlewich?

As a guide, £1,000–£2,500 including VAT for a single-storey rear extension, or £2,000–£3,500 for a two-storey scheme. A householder planning application in England costs £548 (£575 for applications made from 8 December 2026), and a lawful development certificate for proposed work costs half the householder fee. Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.

Do you need planning permission for a rear extension in Middlewich?

Here is how the rules in England apply to a rear extension in Middlewich.

England's rules allow a rear extension of more than one storey without an application only when it is no deeper than 3 metres and at least 7 metres from the boundary opposite the rear wall, and never on designated land. Most two-storey schemes need householder planning permission.

Councils aim to decide householder applications within 8 weeks of validation, and prior approval within 42 days.

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 Middlewich like to extend?

Middlewich has long runs of terraced houses with back yards and alleys, plus 1930s semis further out. Yard extensions on terraces are often single-storey and close to both boundaries.

How a rear extension in Middlewich comes together

1. Survey visit

   We visit free of charge, measure up, check access, drainage and neighbours' extensions, and note what you want the room to do.

2. Drawings and budget

   Floor plans and elevations for the options, each with a guide price.

3. Planning and regulations

   We take the design through the right planning route, then produce the construction drawings and engineer's calculations for building control.

4. Written price, then build

   Once the design and approvals are in place, you get a fixed written price and programme, and we build through to sign-off.
