Working in Bedworth
We cover Bedworth and the postcode districts CV12. Nearby, we also take on projects in Nuneaton (3 miles), Atherstone (8 miles), Kenilworth (10 miles), Rugby (11 miles).
Coventry, in West Midlands, is roughly 5 miles from Bedworth 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
- Warm-roof design with insulation above the deck
- Parapets or edge trims and flashings to the house
- Membrane choice: single-ply, EPDM or GRP
- Lanterns or rooflights with upstands
Height is often what decides a flat roof. Under first-floor windows, a pitched roof may not fit at all; a flat roof keeps the extension low while still giving a good ceiling height inside.
Do I need planning permission in Bedworth?
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.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
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).

Flat roof extension questions answered
Do you cover all of Bedworth?
Yes. We cover Bedworth and the surrounding parts of Warwickshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Will my neighbours in Bedworth 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.
Who do I contract with for a flat roof extension in Bedworth?
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.
Can I walk on a flat roof extension?
Only for maintenance unless it is designed as a terrace. A roof terrace or balcony needs planning permission and a different structure.
Are flat roof extensions cheaper?
Usually slightly, because there is less roof structure and no tiles. Our guide range is about £1,700 to £3,250 per m² including VAT.
