Will the council need to approve it?
In England the main routes are permitted development (ideally confirmed with a lawful development certificate, £274), larger home extension prior approval (£249, 42 days) and a householder planning application (£548, normally 8 weeks), with council fees as set from 1 April 2026.
The planning position for a specific Manor Park address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Local to Manor Park
Postcode districts we cover around Manor Park include E6, E7, E12, IG1. Nearby, we also take on projects in Ilford (1 mile), West Ham (2 miles), Barking (2 miles), Leytonstone (2 miles).
Waltham Abbey, in Essex, is roughly 10 miles from Manor Park and also on our list. London's housing is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many with a rear outrigger and a side return, and 1930s semis in the outer boroughs. Conservation areas are common, so the planning check comes first.
