Will the council need to approve it?
In Wales a single-storey rear extension can usually project up to 4 m beyond the rear wall without a planning application, if it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m and overall height to 4 m within 2 m of a boundary, and covers no more than half the land around the original house. Wales has no larger home extension prior approval scheme.
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 before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).
Working in Cwmbran
Across NP44, we can visit, measure and advise. We also work in nearby Pontypool (3 miles), Newport, Gwent (5 miles), Ebbw Vale (12 miles), Abergavenny (12 miles).
Just over the Mid Glamorgan border, Risca is about 5 miles away. Welsh housing ranges from stone terraces in the valleys to render-and-slate houses and modern estates, and the Welsh planning rules differ from England's in several places.

Your questions about a kitchen extension in Cwmbran
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Cwmbran, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
How long does a kitchen extension take to build in Cwmbran?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–12 weeks design and approvals.
Who do I contract with for a kitchen extension in Cwmbran?
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.
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.
