Planning and approvals in Enniskillen
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.
The planning position for a specific Enniskillen address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Northern Ireland has no Party Wall Act. Where work is on or close to a shared boundary, we agree access and protection with your neighbour in writing before work starts.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of NI Water, which we check during design.
Applications are decided by your council, which handles local planning in Northern Ireland.
Covering Enniskillen
Across BT74, we can visit, measure and advise. Nearby, we also take on projects in Lisnaskea (12 miles).
Just over the County Tyrone border, Omagh is about 23 miles away. In Northern Ireland, extension projects follow the NI planning rules and council building control, which we account for from the first survey.
Who a kitchen extension suits
- Homes being prepared for sale or a long-term stay
- Families who want cooking, dining and living together
- Small or closed-off kitchens
We start with the working triangle and the island, then set the doors, glazing and roof lights around it. Getting this order right avoids the classic mistakes: a sink against a blank wall, glare on the hob or a fridge blocking the garden view.

Common questions in Enniskillen
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Enniskillen, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Do you cover all of Enniskillen?
Yes. We cover Enniskillen and the surrounding parts of County Fermanagh. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Do I need building regulations approval in Enniskillen?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
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.
How much does a kitchen extension cost?
For the extension itself our guide range is about £1,550 to £3,010 per m² including VAT. A standard 20 m² kitchen extension is typically around £36,000 to £46,000 in Enniskillen, plus the kitchen itself, which commonly adds £9,000 to £20,000 for a mid-range design.
