Do I need planning permission in Leominster?

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 over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.

If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Covering Leominster

Across HR6, we can visit, measure and advise. Neighbouring towns we cover include Hereford (12 miles), Ledbury (19 miles), Ross-on-Wye (24 miles).

Across the West Midlands, brick-built semis with long gardens are common, so single-storey and two-storey rear extensions are popular choices.

How the project works

Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

  1. Free site visit

    A designer visits, takes measurements and photos, and discusses layouts, budget and timing with you.

  2. Design and approvals

    Once the layout is agreed, we deal with the council: planning permission or written confirmation that none is needed, plus building control.

  3. Fixed written price

    We confirm the build price in writing, based on the approved drawings and the finishes you have chosen.

  4. Build and sign-off

    Our team builds the extension, keeps you updated weekly and finishes with building control sign-off.

Your questions about an annexe extension in Leominster

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Leominster, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

Who do I contract with for an annexe extension in Leominster?

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.

Do I need building regulations approval in Leominster?

Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.

How much does an annexe extension cost?

Our guide range is about £1,940 to £3,690 per m² including VAT. A one-bedroom annexe of about 35 m² is typically £81,000 to £102,000 at standard spec in Leominster.

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).
