Will the council need to approve it?
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.
The planning position for a specific Bedworth address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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.
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).
Local to Bedworth
Site visits are available across Bedworth (CV12). We also work in nearby Nuneaton (3 miles), Atherstone (8 miles), Kenilworth (10 miles), Rugby (11 miles).
Just over the West Midlands border, Coventry is about 5 miles away. Across the West Midlands, brick-built semis with long gardens are common, so single-storey and two-storey rear extensions are popular choices.
How much does a kitchen extension cost in Bedworth?
Labour and material costs vary across the UK, so for Bedworth we use our West Midlands factor (×0.97). The ranges include VAT and exclude design, structural and council fees.
Typical rates in Bedworth: £1,750 to £3,400 per m² including VAT, depending on specification.
| Size | Essential | Standard | Premium |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 m × 5 m 15 m² | £26,000 – £31,000 | £30,500 – £39,000 | £38,500 – £51,000 |
| 4 m × 5 m 20 m² | £34,500 – £41,000 | £40,500 – £51,500 | £51,000 – £68,000 |
| 4 m × 7 m 28 m² | £48,500 – £57,500 | £57,000 – £72,000 | £71,500 – £95,500 |
Build cost only. A mid-range kitchen, supplied and fitted, typically adds £9,000 to £20,000.

Common questions in Bedworth
Do I need building regulations approval in Bedworth?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Do you cover all of Bedworth?
Yes. We cover Bedworth and the surrounding parts of Warwickshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
How long does a kitchen extension take to build in Bedworth?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–12 weeks design and approvals.
Can you fit a kitchen I buy elsewhere?
Yes. We can fit it or work with your supplier’s fitters. We need the layout early so that drains, services and lighting are in the right place.
Where should the island go?
Usually under the brightest part of the roof and away from the main walkway to the garden. We test two or three layouts on the plan before deciding.
