What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Armagh?

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. Planning fees in Northern Ireland are set by the Department for Infrastructure; we confirm the current householder fee when we submit. We put a fixed price in writing once the design is agreed, and explain any provisional sums such as foundations.

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

Here is how the rules in Northern Ireland apply to a rear extension in Armagh.

In Northern Ireland a rear extension of more than one storey can be permitted development if it projects no more than 3 metres and stays at least 7 metres from the rear boundary. Two-storey extensions in conservation areas, and most larger schemes, need planning permission from the council.

Northern Ireland councils work to a 15-week target for local applications, which include householder extensions; many householder decisions come sooner.

Conservation areas, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and listed buildings restrict permitted development in Northern Ireland. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.

What are homes in Armagh like to extend?

Armagh has terraces near the centre, semis on the edges and many detached houses and bungalows in the surrounding countryside, where plots are often generous.

How a rear extension in Armagh 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. Options and costs

    We draw layout options and price each one, so the budget shapes the design rather than surprising you later.

  3. Paperwork handled

    Planning or permitted development, building control approval, structural design and neighbour agreements are all handled by us.

  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.
