Planning and approvals in Buckley

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.

Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (AONBs) 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. Wales has its own building regulations and approved documents; the council or a registered building control approver checks the plans, inspects the work and issues a completion certificate.

The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in Wales as in England: notice must be served before work to a shared wall, building on the boundary, or excavating close to a neighbour's foundations.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).

Pitched roof extension questions answered

Do you cover all of Buckley?

Yes. We cover Buckley and the surrounding parts of Clwyd. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

Do I need building regulations approval in Buckley?

Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Buckley, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

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.

How much does a pitched roof extension cost?

Our guide range is about £1,720 to £3,260 per m² including VAT, a little more than a flat roof because of the roof structure and tiles.
