Do you need planning permission for a single-storey rear extension in Bloxwich?
Whether your single-storey rear extension in Bloxwich needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
English permitted development (Class A) allows a single-storey rear extension of 3 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 4 metres on a detached one, measured from the original house, with a maximum height of 4 metres and eaves of no more than 3 metres within 2 metres of a boundary.
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. 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 Bloxwich like to extend?
Red-brick terraces and 1930s semis make up much of Bloxwich. Many already have a small kitchen lean-to at the back, which a new rear extension usually replaces rather than adds to.

FAQ
Single-storey rear extension questions in Bloxwich
How much does a single-storey rear extension cost in Bloxwich?
As a guide, £1,900–£3,100 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, 3 m wide × 4 m deep (12 m²): about £23,000–£37,000 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.
Can I get a price without a visit?
Our online guide-price tool gives a range in a couple of minutes. A written price needs a survey.
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.
What postcode areas do you cover around Bloxwich?
Including WS2, WS3 and WV12, and the surrounding West Midlands area.
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.
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.
