Planning Permission for Home Extensions
Extending your home is a fantastic way to gain more space and add value to your property. However, before starting construction, you may need to obtain planning permission from your local authority. Our service guides you through every step of this process to ensure your extension complies with legal and design requirements.

When Planning
Permission is Required
Not all home extensions need planning permission. You may need permission if:
The extension exceeds specific size limits under Permitted Development Rights.
Your home is located in a conservation area or is a listed building.
The extension will significantly alter the appearance or height of your property.
You’re building close to a boundary, affecting neighbours or privacy.
You plan to use the space for non-residential purposes. We assess your property and extension plans to determine if permission is required.
