Do I need planning permission in Cambuslang?
In Scotland, householder permitted development rules (Class 1A for single-storey ground-floor extensions and Class 1B for extensions of more than one storey) allow some smaller extensions without a planning application, within limits on depth, height and distance from the boundary. Conservation areas and listed buildings are more restricted. Separately, almost every extension needs a building warrant from the council before work starts.
The planning position for a specific Cambuslang address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Where work affects a shared wall or a neighbour's land, we agree access, protection and making good with your neighbour in writing before work starts.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of Scottish Water, which we check during design.
Applications are decided by your council as planning authority.

Common questions in Cambuslang
Who do I contract with for a flat roof extension in Cambuslang?
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.
Will my neighbours in Cambuslang be involved?
If a planning application is needed, the council notifies neighbours. Where work is close to a shared boundary, we agree access and protection with them in writing.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Cambuslang, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Are flat roof extensions cheaper?
Usually slightly, because there is less roof structure and no tiles. Our guide range is about £1,720 to £3,280 per m² including VAT.
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.
