Planning and approvals in Portadown
In Northern Ireland the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 lets some single-storey rear extensions go ahead without planning permission, up to 3 m on a semi-detached or terraced house and 4 m on a detached house, within height and boundary limits. Larger, side and two-storey extensions normally need planning permission from the council, and building control approval is separate.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
In Northern Ireland building control is run by the councils under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland). We submit full plans or a building notice and book the inspections through to completion.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of NI Water, which we check during design.
Applications are decided by your council, which handles local planning in Northern Ireland.

Common questions in Portadown
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Portadown, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Do you cover all of Portadown?
Yes. We cover Portadown and the surrounding parts of County Armagh. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Who do I contract with for a bedroom extension in Portadown?
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.
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.
Can I add a ground-floor bedroom for a relative?
Yes. A ground-floor bedroom with an accessible shower room is a common request. If it will be lived in as a self-contained home, planning treats it differently, so tell us how it will be used.
