Covering Ledbury
Our survey diary covers Ledbury, including HR8. Nearby, we also take on projects in Ross-on-Wye (11 miles), Hereford (12 miles), Leominster (19 miles).
Malvern, in Worcestershire, is roughly 7 miles from Ledbury and also on our list. Across the West Midlands, brick-built semis with long gardens are common, so single-storey and two-storey rear extensions are popular choices.
Included in a typical project
- Opening widened into the house if wanted
- Removal and disposal of the old conservatory
- Trial holes to check the existing foundations
- Insulated walls and roof to current regulations
- New or upgraded foundations
- Glazing and doors to suit the new room
Planning rules that apply in Ledbury
In England a single-storey rear extension can usually go up to 3 m beyond the original rear wall of a semi-detached or terraced house, or 4 m on a detached house, without a planning application, provided it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m within 2 m of a boundary and, with other buildings, covers no more than half the land around the original house. The larger home extension prior approval scheme raises those depths to 6 m and 8 m, with neighbours notified and a 42-day decision.
The planning position for a specific Ledbury address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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).

Conservatory replacement questions answered
Do you cover all of Ledbury?
Yes. We cover Ledbury and the surrounding parts of Herefordshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
How long does a conservatory replacement take to build in Ledbury?
On site, typically 8 to 14 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–12 weeks design and approvals.
Who do I contract with for a conservatory replacement in Ledbury?
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.
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 £1,790 to £3,400 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.
