Extensions in and around Cardiff
Our survey diary covers Cardiff, including CF5, CF10, CF11, CF14, CF23, CF24. We also work in nearby Penarth (3 miles), Barry (7 miles), Cowbridge (12 miles).
Caerphilly, in Mid Glamorgan, is roughly 7 miles from Cardiff and also on our list. Welsh housing ranges from stone terraces in the valleys to render-and-slate houses and modern estates, and the Welsh planning rules differ from England's in several places.
What we take care of
- Removal and disposal of the old conservatory
- Opening widened into the house if wanted
- Glazing and doors to suit the new room
- Insulated walls and roof to current regulations
- New or upgraded foundations
- Trial holes to check the existing foundations
Will the council need to approve it?
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.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in Wales as in England: notice must be served before work to a shared wall, building on the boundary, or excavating close to a neighbour's foundations.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).

The price is fixed in writing once the design is settled, with a clear programme and payment stages.
Build and sign-off

Common questions in Cardiff
Who do I contract with for a conservatory replacement in Cardiff?
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 I need building regulations approval in Cardiff?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Cardiff, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
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.
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.
