Rear extensions for terraced houses in Mid Wales
Rear and side return extensions for terraces, with access through the house and two neighbours. Rear extensions in Mid Wales: we cover 4 towns including Newtown, Brecon and Welshpool, with design, approvals and the build under one contract.
Terraced streets make up much of the housing in parts of Mid Wales, and most rear extensions here go in without side access. Older terraces near the centre and post-war semis further out are typical of Mid Wales. Sloping sites are common in Wales, so floor levels and retaining walls are designed at the start.

Do you need planning permission in Mid Wales?
Welsh permitted development allows a single-storey rear extension of up to 4 metres in depth and 4 metres in height, subject to boundary and garden-coverage limits. There is no larger-extension prior approval scheme in Wales.
In Wales, as in England, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 requires notice to neighbours before work to a shared wall or excavation near their foundations.
Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
