Do you need planning permission for a terraced house rear extension in The Boldons?
Here is how the rules in England apply to a terraced house rear extension in The Boldons.
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.
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 The Boldons like to extend?
Terraces and semis are typical around The Boldons. On terraces a single-storey rear extension across the back yard is usually the practical choice; semis often have room for more.

FAQ
Terraced house rear extension questions in The Boldons
What postcode areas do you cover around The Boldons?
Including NE32, NE35 and NE36, and the surrounding Tyne and Wear area.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in The Boldons?
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.
Do both neighbours need party wall notices?
Usually yes in England and Wales, because the extension often sits on or near both boundaries.
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.
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.
Do you handle building control in The Boldons?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
