Local to Bedworth
Across CV12, we can visit, measure and advise. Neighbouring towns we cover include Nuneaton (3 miles), Atherstone (8 miles), Kenilworth (10 miles), Rugby (11 miles).
Across the West Midlands, brick-built semis with long gardens are common, so single-storey and two-storey rear extensions are popular choices.
Will the council need to approve it?
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 Bedworth 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).

Your questions about a glass extension in Bedworth
Who do I contract with for a glass 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.
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.
How long does a glass extension take to build in Bedworth?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–14 weeks design and approvals.
How much does a glass extension cost?
Our guide range is about £2,910 to £5,630 per m² including VAT, because structural glass is made to order. A 12 m² standard-spec glass extension is typically £40,500 to £51,500 in Bedworth.
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.
