Semi-detached rear extension in Yateley

For homes in Yateley, a semi-detached rear extension is often the simplest way to gain space without moving. Single or two-storey extensions for semi-detached houses, with side access and one party wall. We take it from survey to completion certificate.

Yateley is covered from our Hampshire round, including GU46. Where a Yateley semi already has a small lean-to at the back, we usually replace it rather than extend it.

Do you need planning permission for a semi-detached rear extension in Yateley?

The planning route for a semi-detached rear extension in Yateley is set by England's householder rules and your council.

Under England's householder permitted development rules you can usually add 3 metres at the back of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, without a planning application, as long as the extension stays under 4 metres high and its eaves stay under 3 metres where it is within 2 metres of a boundary.

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.

If 3 or 4 metres is not enough, England's prior approval route allows 6 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 8 metres on a detached house for a single-storey rear extension. Neighbours are consulted, the council decides within 42 days, and the fee is £249, rising to £310 from 8 December 2026.

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 Yateley like to extend?

Yateley has a mix of Victorian terraces near the centre and larger Edwardian and inter-war houses further out. Clay soils across much of the South East mean deeper foundations near trees, which we plan for at the survey.
