Will the council need to approve it?

In Northern Ireland the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 lets some single-storey rear extensions go ahead without planning permission, up to 3 m on a semi-detached or terraced house and 4 m on a detached house, within height and boundary limits. Larger, side and two-storey extensions normally need planning permission from the council, and building control approval is separate.

Homes in conservation areas, areas of townscape character and listed buildings have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.

In Northern Ireland building control is run by the councils under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland). We submit full plans or a building notice and book the inspections through to completion.

Northern Ireland has no Party Wall Act. Where work is on or close to a shared boundary, we agree access and protection with your neighbour in writing before work starts.

Applications are decided by your council, which handles local planning in Northern Ireland.

    With the design and specification agreed, you get a fixed written price and a start date.

Common questions in County Armagh

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for County Armagh, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

How long does a flat roof extension take to build in County Armagh?

On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–12 weeks design and approvals.

Will my neighbours in County Armagh 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 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 £1,500 to £2,880 per m² including VAT.
