Do I need planning permission in Beverley?
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.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
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.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).
Local to Beverley
We cover Beverley and the postcode districts HU17. Nearby, we also take on projects in Hull (8 miles), Brough (10 miles), Bridlington (19 miles), Goole (21 miles).
For homes towards Lincolnshire, Scunthorpe is around 21 miles away. Yorkshire and the Humber combines stone-built terraces in the Pennine towns with brick semis and newer estates elsewhere, so materials and roof details need matching with care.
When a glass extension makes sense
- Period and listed-style houses where a light touch is wanted
- Small infill spaces and side returns
- Garden-facing dining rooms
Solar gain is the risk. We specify solar-control glass, plan for opening vents or sliding panels, and avoid fully glazed roofs on south-facing extensions unless shading is included.

Common questions in Beverley
Do I need building regulations approval in Beverley?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Will my neighbours in Beverley 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 Beverley?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–14 weeks design and approvals.
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 £2,820 to £5,450 per m² including VAT, because structural glass is made to order. A 12 m² standard-spec glass extension is typically £39,000 to £50,000 in Beverley.
