What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Halesowen?

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. Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.

Do you need planning permission for a rear extension in Halesowen?

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

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. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development, prior approval or a planning application.

What are homes in Halesowen like to extend?

Halesowen has a lot of post-war semis and estate houses with long gardens and side access, which makes rear extensions quicker to build.

How a rear extension in Halesowen comes together

  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.

  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, prior approval or planning application, then Building Regulations drawings and structural calculations, plus party wall notices where they apply.

  4. Build and sign-off

    We build to the approved drawings with regular updates, then hand over the building control completion certificate and any guarantees from suppliers.
