What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Bedworth?
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 Bedworth?
The planning route for a rear extension in Bedworth is set by England's householder rules and your council.
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. 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 Bedworth like to extend?
Red-brick terraces and 1930s semis make up much of Bedworth. Many already have a small kitchen lean-to at the back, which a new rear extension usually replaces rather than adds to.

Rear extension planning drawings questions in Bedworth
Can I live at home while the extension is built?

Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
Are the drawings mine?
You can use them to get other quotes, subject to the terms.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Bedworth house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
