Planning and building control in Mangotsfield

In England a single-storey rear extension can usually go up to 3 m beyond the original rear wall of a semi-detached or terraced house, or 4 m on a detached house, without a planning application, provided it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m within 2 m of a boundary and, with other buildings, covers no more than half the land around the original house. The larger home extension prior approval scheme raises those depths to 6 m and 8 m, with neighbours notified and a 42-day decision.

In England a single-storey side return infill is often permitted development if it stays within the height limits and is no wider than half the width of the original house. Conservation areas, listed buildings and flats always need an application, and the boundary wall usually brings in the Party Wall Act.

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.

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).

What works best for Mangotsfield houses?

In the South West, local stone, render and brick vary from town to town, so matching materials is a big part of designing an extension that looks right.

Start by comparing pitched roof extensions, single-storey rear extensions and orangery extensions: between them they cover most of the layouts we see requested for houses like these.

  1. Free site visit

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

  2. Design and approvals

    We draw the design, agree it with you and handle planning or permitted development checks and building regulations.

  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.
