Rear extension planning drawings in Bridgend

What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Bridgend?

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 Bridgend?

Here is how the rules in Wales apply to a rear extension in Bridgend.

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 Bridgend like to extend?

Bridgend is largely terraced streets on sloping ground, where back gardens step up or down from the house. Excavation, retaining walls and drainage are priced at the survey.

How a rear extension in Bridgend 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. Approvals

   Permitted development check or householder planning application, then Building Regulations drawings to the Welsh Approved Documents and structural calculations, plus party wall notices where they apply.

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.
