Do you need planning permission for a terraced house rear extension in Warminster?
Planning for a terraced house rear extension in Warminster 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 Warminster like to extend?
Stone-built and rendered houses are common around Warminster, so matching the walling is a design decision in its own right: natural stone, reconstituted stone or a render finish across old and new.

FAQ
Terraced house rear extension questions in Warminster
How much does a terraced house rear extension cost in Warminster?
As a guide, £2,130–£3,430 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, 3 m wide × 4.5 m deep (13.5 m²): about £29,000–£46,500 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.
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.
Can you build without side access?
Yes. Materials come through the house in protected runs or over the roof by crane on tight sites.
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 I need planning permission for a rear extension in Warminster?
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.
