Terraced house rear extension in Wombourne

How much does a terraced house rear extension cost in Wombourne?

For Wombourne we work from the West Midlands rate: £2,050–£3,300 per square metre of new floor, including VAT, standard specification. The West Midlands is the baseline for our guide prices.

We put a fixed price in writing once the design is agreed, and explain any provisional sums such as foundations.

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

The planning route for a terraced house rear extension in Wombourne is set by England's householder rules and your council.

Under England's householder permitted development rules you can usually add 3 metres at the back of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, without a planning application, as long as the extension stays under 4 metres high and its eaves stay under 3 metres where it is 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. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.

What are homes in Wombourne like to extend?

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

How a terraced house rear extension in Wombourne comes together

1. Look round and measure

   A free visit to see the back of the house, measure it, check the drains and boundaries and hear what you need.

2. Options and costs

   We draw layout options and price each one, so the budget shapes the design rather than surprising you later.

3. Approvals

   Permitted development check, prior approval or planning application, then Building Regulations drawings and structural calculations, plus party wall notices where they apply.

4. Build and sign-off

   We build to the approved drawings with regular updates, then hand over the building control completion certificate and any guarantees from suppliers.
