Extensions in and around Long Eaton
Our survey diary covers Long Eaton, including NG10. Nearby, we also take on projects in Ilkeston (5 miles), Heanor (9 miles), Derby (9 miles), Ripley (11 miles).
For homes towards Nottinghamshire, Nottingham is around 6 miles away. Homes across the East Midlands often have usable side land or a driveway beside the house, which opens up side and wraparound options.
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.
The planning position for a specific Long Eaton address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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.
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).

Questions people ask about annexe extensions
Will my neighbours in Long Eaton be involved?
If a planning application or prior approval is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.
Do you cover all of Long Eaton?
Yes. We cover Long Eaton and the surrounding parts of Derbyshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Long Eaton, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Does an annexe extension need planning permission?
Usually yes, because of its size and the way it will be used. Councils check that it stays ancillary to the main house, so the application must describe the use clearly.
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).
