Planning rules that apply in Basingstoke
In England a glazed or orangery-style extension follows the same size limits as any single-storey rear extension: 3 m or 4 m without an application, or up to 6 m and 8 m through prior approval. Building regulations limit glazing to about a quarter of the new floor area plus the openings it replaces, unless whole-house calculations show the design still performs.
The planning position for a specific Basingstoke address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Building regulations approval is separate from planning. In England you can use the council's building control team or a registered building control approver; a full plans application gets the drawings checked before work starts, and the inspector signs the work off with a completion certificate.
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).
Local to Basingstoke
Our survey diary covers Basingstoke, including RG21, RG22, RG23, RG24, RG25. We also work in nearby Alton (9 miles), Fleet (11 miles), Yateley (12 miles), Aldershot (14 miles).
The South East has a broad mix of 1930s semis, post-war estates, newer developments and period cottages, and many houses have enough garden for a generous rear extension.

Questions people ask about glass extensions
Do you cover all of Basingstoke?
Yes. We cover Basingstoke and the surrounding parts of Hampshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Will my neighbours in Basingstoke 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 glass extension in Basingstoke?
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.
Are glass extensions cold in winter?
Modern double or triple glazing with warm-edge spacers and underfloor heating keeps them comfortable. They are not as warm as a solid room, and we explain the trade-off honestly.
How much does a glass extension cost?
Our guide range is about £3,360 to £6,500 per m² including VAT, because structural glass is made to order. A 12 m² standard-spec glass extension is typically £47,000 to £59,500 in Basingstoke.
