Do you need planning permission for a terraced house rear extension in East Dereham?
The planning route for a terraced house rear extension in East Dereham is set by England's householder rules and your council.
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.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in England: you serve notice two months before work to a shared wall, and one month before digging foundations within 3 metres (or 6 metres for deeper foundations) of a neighbour's building. Neighbours can agree in writing; if they dissent, surveyors agree an award.
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 East Dereham like to extend?
East Dereham mixes Victorian terraces with 1930s semis, so both side returns and full-width kitchen extensions suit houses here. On an East Dereham terrace both neighbours usually need party wall notices or agreement, so we talk to them early.

FAQ
Terraced house rear extension questions in East Dereham
Do you handle building control in East Dereham?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
How long does a rear extension take to build in East Dereham?
Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
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.
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.
Is the site visit in East Dereham free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
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.
