Planning and building control in Cleckheaton
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 extension can be permitted development if it is no more than 4 m high and no wider than half the width of the original house. Two-storey side extensions, and any side extension on designated land such as a conservation area, need a householder planning application.
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).
Choosing the right extension in Cleckheaton
Homes across Yorkshire and the Humber range from back-to-back and through terraces to large suburban semis, and extension options vary with them.
Start by comparing side return extensions, single-storey rear extensions and pitched roof extensions: between them they cover most of the layouts we see requested for houses like these.

Who do I contract with?
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.
Will my neighbours need to be told?
If you apply for planning or prior approval the council notifies them, and in England party wall notices may be needed for work near a shared boundary.
Do I need planning permission for an extension in Cleckheaton?
Not always. It depends on the size, position and your property's history. Many single-storey rear extensions in England are permitted development or can use prior approval.
