Mid Wales
Rear extension plans and planning applications in Mid Wales
Measured survey, design options, planning drawings and the application, handled for you. We design and build rear extensions across Mid Wales, from Newtown and Brecon to Welshpool, covering single-storey kitchen extensions, two-storey additions, side returns and wraparounds.
For Newtown homes we start with a measured survey, then draw options before anything is submitted. Mid Wales has Victorian terraces near the centre and semis further out. Welsh permitted development allows up to 4 metres at the rear for many houses.
What does it cost in Mid Wales?
As a guide, £1,000–£2,500 including VAT. Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.
Do you need planning permission in Mid Wales?
In Wales a rear extension of more than one storey can be permitted development if the ground floor projects no more than 4 metres and the upper floor no more than 3 metres, with at least 10.5 metres to the rear boundary. It is not permitted development in conservation areas, National Parks or National Landscapes, so many double-storey schemes need a householder application.
Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
Planning fees in Wales are set by the Welsh Government; we confirm the current householder fee when we prepare the application.
Welsh councils aim to decide householder applications within 8 weeks.
