Planning rules that apply in Hook

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.

Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (formerly AONBs), the Broads and World Heritage Sites have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.

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).

Working in Hook

Site visits are available across Hook (KT5, KT6, KT9). Neighbouring towns we cover include Chessington (0 miles), Surbiton (2 miles), Worcester Park (3 miles), New Malden (3 miles).

Just over the Surrey border, Esher is about 3 miles away. In London, space is at a premium and gardens are often short, so side returns, wraparounds and carefully planned rear extensions tend to make the most of every metre.

When a bungalow extension makes sense

  • Homeowners planning for later life
  • Bungalows on larger plots
  • Families wanting more space on one floor

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.

How the project works

Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

  1. Free site visit

    First, a site visit: we look at the house, garden, access and drains and listen to what you need.

  2. Design and approvals

    Drawings are prepared and agreed with you, then submitted for the right planning route and building regulations approval.

  3. Fixed written price

    With the design and specification agreed, you get a fixed written price and a start date.

  4. Build and sign-off

    We build it with one project manager, book the building control inspections and hand over the completion certificate.

Common questions in Hook

Who do I contract with for a bungalow extension in Hook?

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.

Do you cover all of Hook?

Yes. We cover Hook and the surrounding parts of Greater London. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

How long does a bungalow extension take to build in Hook?

On site, typically 10 to 18 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–14 weeks design and approvals.

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.
