Local to Weston-super-Mare
Across BS22, BS23, BS24, we can visit, measure and advise. We also work in nearby Burnham-on-Sea (7 miles), Clevedon (8 miles), Nailsea (11 miles), Portishead (13 miles).
Kingswood, in Gloucestershire, is roughly 21 miles from Weston-super-Mare and also on our list. South West homes range from terraced streets in the cities to stone cottages and bungalows in the countryside, and conservation areas are common in historic centres.
Planning and approvals in Weston-super-Mare
In England a single-storey rear extension can usually go up to 3 m beyond the original rear wall of a semi-detached or terraced house, or 4 m on a detached house, without a planning application, provided it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m within 2 m of a boundary and, with other buildings, covers no more than half the land around the original house. The larger home extension prior approval scheme raises those depths to 6 m and 8 m, with neighbours notified and a 42-day decision.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Questions people ask about home office extensions
How long does a home office extension take to build in Weston-super-Mare?
On site, typically 8 to 12 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–10 weeks design and approvals.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Weston-super-Mare, 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 home office extension in Weston-super-Mare?
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.
Is an attached office better than a garden office?
An attached office shares the house heating and broadband, adds floor area to the home, and needs no garden path in the rain. A garden building can be cheaper and quicker but is a separate structure.
Can I claim the cost against tax?
Building work on your home is not normally an allowable business expense, and claiming it can have capital gains tax effects. Speak to an accountant before assuming any tax relief.
