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.

In a conservation area, national park, National Landscape, the Broads or a World Heritage Site the permitted development limits are tighter (no side or two-storey extensions without an application). Listed homes need listed building consent, and if permitted development rights have been removed, any extension needs an application.

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).

Is a glass extension right for your house?

  • 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.

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 Golders Green home, measure up, talk through what you want and check the planning position.

  2. Design and approvals

    Once the layout is agreed, we deal with the council: planning permission or written confirmation that none is needed, plus building control.

  3. Fixed written price

    You receive a written, itemised price and programme. Nothing starts until you are happy with it.

  4. Build and sign-off

    Our team builds the extension, keeps you updated weekly and finishes with building control sign-off.

Glass extension questions answered

How long does a glass extension take to build in Golders Green?

On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–14 weeks design and approvals.

Do you cover all of Golders Green?

Yes. We cover Golders Green and the surrounding parts of Greater London. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

Who do I contract with for a glass extension in Golders Green?

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 £3,900 to £7,540 per m² including VAT, because structural glass is made to order. A 12 m² standard-spec glass extension is typically £54,500 to £69,000 in Golders Green.
