Is a bedroom extension right for your house?

- Multi-generational households

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.
Working in New Milton
Postcode districts we cover around New Milton include BH25. We also work in nearby Hythe (14 miles), Totton (14 miles), Southampton (15 miles), Eastleigh (20 miles).
Just over the Dorset border, Christchurch is about 5 miles away. The South East has a broad mix of 1930s semis, post-war estates, newer developments and period cottages, and many houses have enough garden for a generous rear extension.
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 New Milton 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).

Common questions in New Milton
Who do I contract with for a bedroom extension in New Milton?
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.
How long does a bedroom extension take to build in New Milton?
On site, typically 14 to 22 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–14 weeks design and approvals.
Do I need building regulations approval in New Milton?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Will a new bedroom need planning permission?
Upstairs additions usually do. Ground-floor rooms may fall within permitted development, depending on size and position.
How much does a bedroom extension cost?
Our guide range is about £1,790 to £3,580 per m² including VAT. A bedroom with an en-suite of about 18 m² is typically £38,000 to £49,500 at standard spec, depending on whether it is part of a larger two-storey build.
