Planning rules that apply in Wallsend
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.
Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (formerly AONBs), the Broads and World Heritage Sites have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.
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).
Covering Wallsend
Our survey diary covers Wallsend, including NE6, NE7, NE12, NE28, NE31, NE32. Neighbouring towns we cover include Hebburn (1 mile), Jarrow (2 miles), Felling (3 miles), Gosforth (3 miles).
Across the North East, houses often have rear yards or modest gardens, so compact, well-lit single-storey extensions make the biggest difference.
What is included
- Kitchen-led layout planning before the drawings are fixed
- Kitchen fitting by our team or coordination with your supplier
- Extraction routes and ventilation for building regulations
- 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.
From first visit to completion
Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.
Free site visit
First, a site visit: we look at the house, garden, access and drains and listen to what you need.
Design and approvals
Once the layout is agreed, we deal with the council: planning permission or written confirmation that none is needed, plus building control.
Fixed written price
The price is fixed in writing once the design is settled, with a clear programme and payment stages.
Build and sign-off
The build is managed from start to finish, inspected at each stage and signed off on completion.
Kitchen extension questions answered
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Wallsend, 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 Wallsend?
Yes. We cover Wallsend and the surrounding parts of Tyne and Wear. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Who do I contract with for a kitchen extension in Wallsend?
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.
