What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Holyhead?
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 Wales are set by the Welsh Government; we confirm the current householder fee when we prepare the application. 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 Holyhead?
Here is how the rules in Wales apply to a rear extension in Holyhead.
Welsh rules allow a two-storey rear extension without an application only where the ground floor is no deeper than 4 metres, the upper floor no deeper than 3 metres and at least 10.5 metres remains to the rear boundary. Most homeowners still apply for householder planning permission.
Welsh councils aim to decide householder applications within 8 weeks.
Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, and listed buildings need listed building consent. 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 Holyhead like to extend?
Holyhead has Victorian terraces near the centre and semis further out. Welsh permitted development allows up to 4 metres at the rear for many houses.

FAQ
Rear extension planning drawings questions in Holyhead
Will I need a structural engineer?
Yes for the beam over the new opening and usually the foundations; we arrange them and their calculations go to building control.
How long does a rear extension take to build in Holyhead?
Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
Do neighbours get consulted?
Yes for a full application: the council writes to them or puts up a site notice.
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.
