Semi-detached rear extension in Camberley
Thinking about a semi-detached rear extension in Camberley? Single or two-storey extensions for semi-detached houses, with side access and one party wall. Our team handles the drawings, the planning route and the build, and your contract is with one company throughout.
We cover Camberley (GU15 and GU16) as part of our Surrey work. Where a Camberley 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 Camberley?
Here is how the rules in England apply to a semi-detached rear extension in Camberley.
In England a single-storey rear extension can often be built under permitted development: up to 3 metres beyond the original rear wall of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, no higher than 4 metres, with eaves no higher than 3 metres if any part 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.
England also has the larger home extension route: a single-storey rear extension of up to 6 metres on an attached house or 8 metres on a detached house, after prior approval from the council. The council notifies your neighbours and has 42 days to decide; the fee is £249 (£310 for applications made from 8 December 2026). The route is not available on designated land such as conservation areas.
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 Camberley like to extend?
Camberley 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.
