What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Grimsby?
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. 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 Grimsby?
Planning for a rear extension in Grimsby follows the English householder rules.
A two-storey rear extension can be permitted development in England only if it projects no more than 3 metres, stays at least 7 metres from the rear boundary, matches the existing roof pitch and has obscure-glazed upper side windows. In practice most double-storey rear extensions go through a householder planning application.
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. We check your house's planning history and any conservation area before drawing, so the route is clear before you spend on plans.
What are homes in Grimsby like to extend?
Grimsby has plenty of inter-war semis and bungalows, and single-storey rear extensions suit both.

FAQ
Rear extension planning drawings questions in Grimsby
Is the site visit in Grimsby free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
Who will build my extension?
Vetted building teams working under contract to us. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd for the design and the build.
Are the drawings mine?
You can use them to get other quotes, subject to the terms.
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.
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.
Can I get a price without a visit?
Our online guide-price tool gives a range in a couple of minutes. A written price needs a survey.
