Working in Blackpool

Postcode districts we cover around Blackpool include FY1, FY2, FY3, FY4, FY5, FY6. The same team covers Poulton-le-Fylde (3 miles), Thornton-Cleveleys (4 miles), Lytham St Annes (6 miles), Fleetwood (8 miles), all within easy reach.

The North West has a high share of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with rear yards and outriggers, plus large areas of inter-war semis in the suburbs.

Who a glass extension suits

  • Garden-facing dining rooms
  • Period and listed-style houses where a light touch is wanted
  • Small infill spaces and side returns

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.

Do I need planning permission in Blackpool?

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).

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

    We visit your Blackpool home, measure up, talk through what you want and check the planning position.

  2. Design and approvals

    We draw the design, agree it with you and handle planning or permitted development checks and building regulations.

  3. Fixed written price

    The price is fixed in writing once the design is settled, with a clear programme and payment stages.

  4. Build and sign-off

    The build is managed from start to finish, inspected at each stage and signed off on completion.

Common questions in Blackpool

Do you cover all of Blackpool?

Yes. We cover Blackpool and the surrounding parts of Lancashire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

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

Who do I contract with for a glass extension in Blackpool?

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 £2,850 to £5,510 per m² including VAT, because structural glass is made to order. A 12 m² standard-spec glass extension is typically £39,500 to £50,500 in Blackpool.
