Covering Dyfed

Towns we cover in Dyfed include Llanelli, Ammanford, Aberystwyth, Carmarthen, Haverfordwest, Pembroke Dock. Welsh housing ranges from stone terraces in the valleys to render-and-slate houses and modern estates, and the Welsh planning rules differ from England's in several places.

Planning and approvals in Dyfed

In Wales a single-storey rear extension can usually project up to 4 m beyond the rear wall without a planning application, if it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m and overall height to 4 m within 2 m of a boundary, and covers no more than half the land around the original house. Wales has no larger home extension prior approval scheme.

In a conservation area, national park, National Landscape or World Heritage Site the permitted development limits are tighter (no side or two-storey extensions without an application). Listed homes need listed building consent, and if permitted development rights have been removed, any extension needs an application.

Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent before the foundations go in.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).

Our process, step by step

Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

  1. Free site visit

    It starts with a visit to your house to measure, check access and talk through ideas and budget.

  2. Design and approvals

    Drawings are prepared and agreed with you, then submitted for the right planning route and building regulations approval.

  3. Fixed written price

    We confirm the build price in writing, based on the approved drawings and the finishes you have chosen.

  4. Build and sign-off

    We build it with one project manager, book the building control inspections and hand over the completion certificate.

Flat roof extension questions answered

Will my neighbours in Dyfed be involved?

If a planning application 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 Dyfed?

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 see a price before committing to anything?

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

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 £1,630 to £3,120 per m² including VAT.
