What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Bourne?
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. These are guide ranges; the written quote after the survey is the figure that counts.
Do you need planning permission for a rear extension in Bourne?
Here is how the rules in England apply to a rear extension in Bourne.
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 Bourne like to extend?
Bourne has plenty of inter-war semis and bungalows, and single-storey rear extensions suit both.

FAQ
Rear extension planning drawings questions in Bourne
What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Bourne?
As a guide, £1,000–£2,500 including VAT for a single-storey rear extension and £2,000–£3,500 for a two-storey scheme, covering the measured survey, design options and the application. The council fee is extra.
Can I live at home while the extension is built?
Usually yes. Most of the work is outside until the back wall is opened near the end, and that stage is screened off.
Can I see the design in 3D?
Yes; we produce simple 3D views so you can judge the size and light.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Bourne house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
Is the site visit in Bourne free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In England, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or the foundations are close to a neighbour's building. We serve the notices.
