When a double-storey extension makes sense

  • Homeowners who would otherwise consider moving
  • Growing families who need a bedroom as well as a bigger kitchen
  • Houses with enough distance to the rear or side boundary

The roof is what makes a two-storey extension look right or wrong. We match the pitch and materials of the main house wherever possible and plan the upstairs layout around the existing landing so the new rooms feel original rather than bolted on.

Planning rules that apply in Goole

In England a two-storey rear extension is permitted development only if it projects no more than 3 m from the original rear wall, sits at least 7 m from the rear boundary, matches the roof pitch and uses obscure, non-opening side windows upstairs. Most two-storey extensions therefore go through a householder planning application, which costs £548 from 1 April 2026 and normally takes about 8 weeks.

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.

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).

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

Your questions about a double-storey extension in Goole

Do I need building regulations approval in Goole?

Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.

Who do I contract with for a double-storey extension in Goole?

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 Goole?

Yes. We cover Goole and the surrounding parts of East Riding of Yorkshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

Does a double-storey extension need planning permission?

Often, yes. In England a two-storey rear extension can be permitted development only if it projects no more than 3 m and sits at least 7 m from the rear boundary, with matching roof pitch and obscure side windows. Side extensions over one storey always need planning permission. We confirm the route at the survey.

Is a two-storey extension cheaper per square metre?

Usually. Our guide range is about £1,460 to £2,820 per m² of new floor area including VAT, compared with £1,640 to £3,200 per m² for single-storey work, because the foundations and roof are shared across two floors.
