Local to Ammanford
Site visits are available across Ammanford (SA18). Nearby, we also take on projects in Llanelli (11 miles), Carmarthen (14 miles), Pembroke Dock (41 miles), Haverfordwest (42 miles).
Just over the West Glamorgan border, Clydach is about 8 miles away. In Wales, terraced houses with rear offshoots are common in the towns, while detached houses and bungalows dominate in rural areas.
Planning rules that apply in Ammanford
In Wales a single-storey rear extension can usually project up to 4 m beyond the rear wall without a planning application, if it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m and overall height to 4 m within 2 m of a boundary, and covers no more than half the land around the original house. Wales has no larger home extension prior approval scheme.
In a conservation area, national park, National Landscape or 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. Wales has its own building regulations and approved documents; the council or a registered building control approver checks the plans, inspects the work and issues a completion certificate.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).
What we take care of
- Insulated walls and roof to current regulations
- Opening widened into the house if wanted
- Removal and disposal of the old conservatory
- Trial holes to check the existing foundations
- New or upgraded foundations
- Glazing and doors to suit the new room

Build and sign-off
Work is carried out to the agreed programme, inspected by building control and signed off at the end.
Common questions in Ammanford
How long does a conservatory replacement take to build in Ammanford?
On site, typically 8 to 14 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–12 weeks design and approvals.
Will my neighbours in Ammanford be involved?
If a planning application is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Ammanford, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Does replacing a conservatory need planning permission?
A solid replacement is treated as a new extension, so it must meet the permitted development limits or get planning permission, and it always needs building regulations approval.
Is it worth replacing a conservatory with an extension?
If the conservatory is unusable for much of the year, usually yes. A solid extension gives a heated room that counts as proper living space. Our guide range is about £1,720 to £3,260 per m² including VAT, including removal.
