What we take care of

  • Householder planning application where needed
  • Ground and first floor structure, roof tied into the existing roof
  • Foundations sized for two floors
  • Measured survey, design and planning drawings
  • Breaking through at both levels, stairs and landing changes where needed
  • Building regulations drawings and structural design

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.

Will the council need to approve it?

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.

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.

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.

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).

Covering Worcester Park

Across KT3, KT4, SM3, we can visit, measure and advise. We also work in nearby New Malden (2 miles), Morden (2 miles), Surbiton (2 miles), Hook (3 miles).

Across London, terraced houses with narrow side returns and tight access are the norm, which shapes everything from party wall notices to how materials reach the back garden.

From first visit to completion

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

    It starts with a visit to your house to measure, check access and talk through ideas and budget.

  2. Design and approvals

    We draw the design, agree it with you and handle planning or permitted development checks and building regulations.

  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

    The build is managed from start to finish, inspected at each stage and signed off on completion.

Common questions in Worcester Park

Will my neighbours in Worcester Park be involved?

If a planning application or prior approval is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.

Do you cover all of Worcester Park?

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

Do I need building regulations approval in Worcester Park?

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

Do I need a Party Wall Agreement?

If you are in England or Wales and the work involves a shared wall or digging foundations close to a neighbour, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notices must be served before work starts. We tell you which notices are needed.

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.
