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 Middleton 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).

Common questions in Middleton
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Middleton, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Who do I contract with in Middleton?
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 Middleton?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Can I use your drawings with another builder?
Yes. Once paid for, the drawings are yours to use for your project.
Do I need an architect?
Not necessarily. For most extensions an experienced designer or architectural technologist is enough. For listed buildings or complex sites an architect’s input can help.
