Do you need planning permission for a terraced house rear extension in Aldridge?

Whether your terraced house rear extension in Aldridge needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.

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. 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 Aldridge like to extend?

Red-brick terraces and 1930s semis make up much of Aldridge. Many already have a small kitchen lean-to at the back, which a new rear extension usually replaces rather than adds to.

FAQ

Terraced house rear extension questions in Aldridge

What postcode areas do you cover around Aldridge?

Including WS9, and the surrounding West Midlands area.

Can you match the brick or stone on my Aldridge house?

We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.

Will my terrace be in a conservation area?

Many Victorian terraces are. Your council's map shows it; we check at the survey.

Do you handle building control in Aldridge?

Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.

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.

How long does a rear extension take to build in Aldridge?

Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
