Is a glass extension right for your house?
- Small infill spaces and side returns
- Period and listed-style houses where a light touch is wanted
- 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.

Working in Strabane
Across BT82, we can visit, measure and advise. We also work in nearby Omagh (16 miles), Cookstown (30 miles).
Just over the County Londonderry border, Derry/Londonderry is about 13 miles away. In Northern Ireland, extension projects follow the NI planning rules and council building control, which we account for from the first survey.
Planning rules that apply in Strabane
In Northern Ireland the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 lets some single-storey rear extensions go ahead without planning permission, up to 3 m on a semi-detached or terraced house and 4 m on a detached house, within height and boundary limits. Larger, side and two-storey extensions normally need planning permission from the council, and building control approval is separate.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of NI Water, which we check during design.
In Northern Ireland building control is run by the councils under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland). We submit full plans or a building notice and book the inspections through to completion.
Applications are decided by your council, which handles local planning in Northern Ireland.

Common questions in Strabane
Who do I contract with for a glass extension in Strabane?
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.
Do I need building regulations approval in Strabane?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Will my neighbours in Strabane be involved?
If a planning application is needed, the council notifies neighbours. Where work is close to a shared boundary, we agree access and protection with them in writing.
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 £2,580 to £4,990 per m² including VAT, because structural glass is made to order. A 12 m² standard-spec glass extension is typically £36,000 to £45,500 in Strabane.
