Extensions in and around Denton
Postcode districts we cover around Denton include M18, M34, M43, OL7, SK5, SK16. We also work in nearby Hyde (2 miles), Dukinfield (2 miles), Droylsden (2 miles), Ashton-under-Lyne (2 miles).
For homes towards Cheshire, Wilmslow is around 10 miles away. Across the North West, terraced houses with small rear yards suit compact rear and side return extensions, while suburban semis have room for more.
Included in a typical project
- Design for accessibility: level thresholds, wider doors, walk-in shower
- Planning application describing ancillary use
- Kitchenette, shower room and bedroom finish
- Fire separation and alarms to building regulations
Accessibility is cheaper to design in than to retrofit. Level access, a 900 mm door width, a level-access shower and space to turn a wheelchair can all be planned into the footprint for little extra cost.
Will the council need to approve it?
In England an annexe that stays part of the household and connects to the house is assessed as an extension, but its size usually takes it beyond permitted development, so a householder application describing the ancillary use is the normal route.
In a conservation area, national park, National Landscape, the Broads or a World Heritage Site the permitted development limits are tighter (no side or two-storey extensions without an application). Listed homes need listed building consent, and if permitted development rights have been removed, any extension needs an application.
Building regulations approval is separate from planning. In England you can use the council's building control team or a registered building control approver; a full plans application gets the drawings checked before work starts, and the inspector signs the work off with a completion certificate.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Build and sign-off
We build it with one project manager, book the building control inspections and hand over the completion certificate.
Questions people ask about annexe extensions
Who do I contract with for an annexe extension in Denton?
Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.
How long does an annexe extension take to build in Denton?
On site, typically 16 to 24 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 10–16 weeks design and approvals.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Denton, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Will an annexe affect council tax?
It can. Some annexes are assessed separately for council tax, with discounts or exemptions in some cases when occupied by a relative. Check with the Valuation Office Agency (England and Wales), your local assessor (Scotland) or Land & Property Services (Northern Ireland).
Can the annexe have its own front door?
Yes, many do, but it should still connect to the main house to stay clearly part of it.
