Local to Ross-on-Wye
We cover Ross-on-Wye and the postcode districts HR9. We also work in nearby Ledbury (11 miles), Hereford (12 miles), Leominster (24 miles).
The West Midlands has a large stock of 1930s and post-war semi-detached houses, which are well suited to rear, side and over-garage extensions, plus Victorian terraces in the older inner areas.
What we take care of
- Drainage and services designed for sinks, island and appliances
- Extraction routes and ventilation for building regulations
- Roof lantern or rooflights positioned over the work zones
- Kitchen-led layout planning before the drawings are fixed
- Kitchen fitting by our team or coordination with your supplier
- Wide sliding or bifold doors to the garden
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.

Planning and approvals in Ross-on-Wye
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 Ross-on-Wye address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).
