Single-storey rear extension in Tredegar
For homes in Tredegar, a single-storey rear extension is often the simplest way to gain space without moving. Ground-floor space across the back of the house, usually for a kitchen, dining or family room. We take it from survey to completion certificate.
We cover Tredegar (NP22) as part of our South Wales Valleys work. A single-storey rear extension in Tredegar is mostly built from the garden side, so the house stays usable for most of the job.

Do you need planning permission for a single-storey rear extension in Tredegar?
Planning for a single-storey rear extension in Tredegar follows the Welsh householder rules.
In Wales a single-storey rear extension can often be permitted development if it projects no more than 4 metres beyond the rear wall and is no more than 4 metres high. Wales has no prior approval route for deeper extensions, so anything bigger needs a householder planning application.
Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, and listed buildings 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 Tredegar like to extend?
Tredegar is largely terraced streets on sloping ground, where back gardens step up or down from the house. Excavation, retaining walls and drainage are priced at the survey.

FAQ
Single-storey rear extension questions in Tredegar
How long does a rear extension take to build in Tredegar?
Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In Wales, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or close to a neighbour's foundations. We serve the notices.
Can I stay in the house during the build?
Usually yes. The noisiest, dustiest stage, removing the back wall, is kept to the final weeks and screened off. Most families set up a temporary kitchen elsewhere in the house.
Is the site visit in Tredegar free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
Can I live at home while the extension is built?
Usually yes. Most of the work is outside until the back wall is opened near the end, and that stage is screened off.
Who will build my extension?
Vetted building teams working under contract to us. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd for the design and the build.
