Terraced house rear extension in Hazel Grove
For homes in Hazel Grove, a terraced house rear extension is often the simplest way to gain space without moving. Rear and side return extensions for terraces, with access through the house and two neighbours. We take it from survey to completion certificate.
Hazel Grove and its postcode districts SK2, SK6 and SK7 are part of our Greater Manchester coverage. On a Hazel Grove terrace both neighbours usually need party wall notices or agreement, so we talk to them early.

Do you need planning permission for a terraced house rear extension in Hazel Grove?
The planning route for a terraced house rear extension in Hazel Grove is set by England's householder rules and your council.
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.
Because rear extensions often sit on or near the boundary, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 usually applies in England. Notices go out one or two months before work depending on the type of work, and a surveyor's award is only needed if a neighbour does not consent.
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 Hazel Grove like to extend?
Stone and brick terraces are common around Hazel Grove. Where houses back onto a ginnel or alley, deliveries can come in from the rear, which makes the build tidier.

Terraced house rear extension questions in Hazel Grove
Is the site visit in Hazel Grove free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
Do you handle building control in Hazel Grove?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.

Dust screens, floor protection and a single protected route through the house.
Can I live at home while the extension is built?

Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Hazel Grove?
Often not for a single-storey rear extension of up to 3 metres (4 metres on a detached house) under permitted development, or up to 6 or 8 metres with prior approval, unless the house is in a conservation area or its rights have been removed.
Will I need a structural engineer?
Yes for the beam over the new opening and usually the foundations; we arrange them and their calculations go to building control.
