Do you need planning permission for a terraced house rear extension in Urmston?
Planning for a terraced house rear extension in Urmston follows the English householder rules.
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. 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 Urmston like to extend?
Stone and brick terraces are common around Urmston. Where houses back onto a ginnel or alley, deliveries can come in from the rear, which makes the build tidier.

Will my terrace be in a conservation area?
Many Victorian terraces are. Your council's map shows it; we check at the survey.
Is the site visit in Urmston free?

Can you match the brick or stone on my Urmston house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
