Will the council need to approve it?
In Wales a glazed or orangery-style extension follows the normal single-storey limits (up to 4 m at the rear). Welsh building regulations also limit glazing and heat loss, so glass-heavy designs need calculations.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent before the foundations go in.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in Wales as in England: notice must be served before work to a shared wall, building on the boundary, or excavating close to a neighbour's foundations.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).

Included in a typical project
- Solar-control and low-energy glass specification
- Drainage details for frameless roofs
- Planning drawings that show the glass detail
- Design with specialist glazing input
- Whole-house energy calculations where needed
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.

Questions people ask about glass extensions
How long does a glass extension take to build in Chepstow?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–14 weeks design and approvals.
Who do I contract with for a glass extension in Chepstow?
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 Chepstow, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
How much does a glass extension cost?
Our guide range is about £2,790 to £5,390 per m² including VAT, because structural glass is made to order. A 12 m² standard-spec glass extension is typically £39,000 to £49,500 in Chepstow.
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.
