Will the council need to approve it?
In England a two-storey rear extension is permitted development only if it projects no more than 3 m from the original rear wall, sits at least 7 m from the rear boundary, matches the roof pitch and uses obscure, non-opening side windows upstairs. Most two-storey extensions therefore go through a householder planning application, which costs £548 from 1 April 2026 and normally takes about 8 weeks.
The planning position for a specific Camberley address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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.
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.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).
Included in a typical project
- Structure, roof, insulation and finish
- Fire safety: escape windows and smoke alarms to building regulations
- Heating extended to the new rooms
- En-suite drainage and ventilation design
- Layout options: two-storey, over-garage or ground floor
New bedrooms on an upper floor need an escape window or a protected route to the outside under the building regulations. We design the window sizes and stair route to meet that from the outset.
Local to Camberley
We cover Camberley and the postcode districts GU15, GU16. The same team covers Woking (8 miles), Farnham (9 miles), Guildford (10 miles), Egham (10 miles), all within easy reach.
Sandhurst, in Berkshire, is roughly 2 miles from Camberley and also on our list. Homes across the South East range from Victorian terraces in the older town centres to large detached houses on the edges, so the right extension type varies street by street.

Bedroom extension questions answered
Will my neighbours in Camberley 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 Camberley?
Yes. We cover Camberley and the surrounding parts of Surrey. 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 Camberley, 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 a new bedroom need planning permission?
Upstairs additions usually do. Ground-floor rooms may fall within permitted development, depending on size and position.
Does an en-suite need a window?
No, but it needs mechanical extraction that meets the building regulations. We design the duct route at the drawing stage.
