Rear extensions for terraced houses in Dundee and Angus
Rear and side return extensions for terraces, with access through the house and two neighbours. We design and build rear extensions across Dundee and Angus, from Dundee and Arbroath to Forfar, covering single-storey kitchen extensions, two-storey additions, side returns and wraparounds.
In Dundee we plan the delivery route through the house and the skip licence before anything else. Post-war semis and terraces are common around Dundee and Angus, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.

Do you need planning permission in Dundee and Angus?
Scottish householder permitted development (Class 1A) covers many single-storey rear extensions, with a 3 metre eaves limit, a 4 metre height limit and, within 1 metre of a boundary, a depth limit of 3 metres for terraced houses or 4 metres for others. Conservation areas are excluded, and you need a building warrant whatever the planning position.
There is no Party Wall Act in Scotland; neighbour matters are handled through the title deeds, common law and written agreement before work starts.
Classes 1A and 1B do not apply in conservation areas, and listed buildings need listed building consent.

FAQ
Questions people ask
Can you build without side access?
Yes. Materials come through the house in protected runs or over the roof by crane on tight sites.
Will my terrace be in a conservation area?
Many Victorian terraces are. Your council's map shows it; we check at the survey.
Can a terrace have a two-storey rear extension?
It is possible but harder to get through planning because of the effect on both neighbours.
Do you cover all of Dundee and Angus?
We cover 6 towns and districts in Dundee and Angus, including Dundee, Arbroath and Forfar.
Who builds the extension?
Vetted building teams working under contract to us; your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd.
