Covering Hebburn
Site visits are available across Hebburn (NE6, NE28, NE31, NE32). The same team covers Jarrow (1 mile), Wallsend (1 mile), Felling (3 miles), Gateshead (4 miles), all within easy reach.
For homes towards County Durham, Chester-le-Street is around 8 miles away. Across the North East, houses often have rear yards or modest gardens, so compact, well-lit single-storey extensions make the biggest difference.

Who a bungalow extension suits
- Families wanting more space on one floor
- Homeowners planning for later life
- Bungalows on larger plots
Bungalow roofs are often hipped, which makes tying in an extension roof a careful job. We draw the roof junction early because it drives both the look and the cost.
Planning and approvals in Hebburn
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.
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.
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).

Bungalow extension questions answered
Do you cover all of Hebburn?
Yes. We cover Hebburn and the surrounding parts of Tyne and Wear. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
How long does a bungalow extension take to build in Hebburn?
On site, typically 10 to 18 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–14 weeks design and approvals.
Who do I contract with for a bungalow extension in Hebburn?
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 much does a bungalow extension cost?
Our guide range for single-storey work is about £1,590 to £3,090 per m² including VAT. Going upwards is priced after a structural survey.
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.
