Rear extension planning drawings in Wallsend

What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Wallsend?

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 Wallsend?

Here is how the rules in England apply to a rear extension in Wallsend.

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. 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 Wallsend like to extend?

Brick terraces, colliery houses and post-war semis make up much of Wallsend. Former mining areas often need a coal mining risk check before foundations are designed.

1. Look round and measure

   A free visit to see the back of the house, measure it, check the drains and boundaries and hear what you need.
