Do you need planning permission for a terraced house rear extension in Wallsend?
Planning for a terraced house rear extension in Wallsend 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.
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 Wallsend like to extend?
Brick terraces, colliery houses and post-war semis make up much of Wallsend. Former mining areas often need a coal mining risk check before foundations are designed.

Terraced house rear extension questions in Wallsend
Can I get a price without a visit?
Our online guide-price tool gives a range in a couple of minutes. A written price needs a survey.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Wallsend house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
Can you build without side access?
Yes. Materials come through the house in protected runs or over the roof by crane on tight sites.

Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
What postcode areas do you cover around Wallsend?
Including NE12, NE27 and NE28, and the surrounding Tyne and Wear area.

Usually yes. Most of the work is outside until the back wall is opened near the end, and that stage is screened off.
