Towns in East Riding of Yorkshire
What we take care of
- Steel or glass beams and slim-frame glazing
- Planning drawings that show the glass detail
- Design with specialist glazing input
- Drainage details for frameless roofs
- Solar-control and low-energy glass specification
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.
Covering East Riding of Yorkshire
Towns we cover in East Riding of Yorkshire include Hull, Bridlington, Beverley, Goole, Brough. Homes across Yorkshire and the Humber range from back-to-back and through terraces to large suburban semis, and extension options vary with them.
Planning and approvals in East Riding of Yorkshire
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 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).

Questions people ask about glass extensions
Do I need building regulations approval in East Riding of Yorkshire?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for East Riding of Yorkshire, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Will my neighbours in East Riding of Yorkshire 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.
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 East Riding of Yorkshire.
