Planning rules that apply in Enfield
In England a single-storey extension to a bungalow follows the normal permitted development limits (3 m or 4 m, or 6 m and 8 m through prior approval). Adding a first floor always needs planning permission.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
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.
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).
Local to Enfield
Across EN1, EN2, EN3, N9, N14, N21, we can visit, measure and advise. The same team covers Ponders End (2 miles), Edmonton (2 miles), Palmers Green (3 miles), Enfield Lock (3 miles), all within easy reach.
Just over the Hertfordshire border, Cheshunt is about 4 miles away. Across London, terraced houses with narrow side returns and tight access are the norm, which shapes everything from party wall notices to how materials reach the back garden.

Your questions about a bungalow extension in Enfield
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Enfield, 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 Enfield?
Yes. We cover Enfield and the surrounding parts of Greater London. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Who do I contract with for a bungalow extension in Enfield?
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.
Can I extend a bungalow without planning permission?
In England a single-storey rear extension to a bungalow follows the same permitted development limits as a house: 3 m or 4 m, or up to 6 m or 8 m through prior approval. Adding a storey always needs planning permission.
Is it better to extend sideways or upwards?
Sideways and rearwards is usually simpler, cheaper and keeps single-level living. Upwards saves garden but means stairs, more structure and planning permission.
