Will the council need to approve it?
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.
In a conservation area or area of townscape character the permitted development rights are more limited, listed homes need listed building consent, and if rights have been removed by a condition, any extension needs an application.
In Northern Ireland building control is run by the councils under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland). We submit full plans or a building notice and book the inspections through to completion.
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.
Working in Armagh
We cover Armagh and the postcode districts BT61. Neighbouring towns we cover include Portadown (8 miles), Craigavon (11 miles).
Banbridge, in County Down, is roughly 14 miles from Armagh and also on our list. In Northern Ireland, extension projects follow the NI planning rules and council building control, which we account for from the first survey.

Build and sign-off
Our team builds the extension, keeps you updated weekly and finishes with building control sign-off.
Pitched roof extension questions answered
Do I need building regulations approval in Armagh?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Do you cover all of Armagh?
Yes. We cover Armagh and the surrounding parts of County Armagh. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Who do I contract with for a pitched roof extension in Armagh?
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 I have a vaulted ceiling?
Yes. A vaulted ceiling with roof windows is one of the main reasons to choose a pitched roof. It needs insulation between and under the rafters to meet the building regulations.
Is a pitched roof better than a flat roof?
Neither is better in all cases. Pitched roofs blend with traditional houses and shed water quickly; flat roofs give more headroom and suit modern designs and lanterns.
