Do I need planning permission in Clydebank?
In Scotland, householder permitted development rules (Class 1A for single-storey ground-floor extensions and Class 1B for extensions of more than one storey) allow some smaller extensions without a planning application, within limits on depth, height and distance from the boundary. Conservation areas and listed buildings are more restricted. Separately, almost every extension needs a building warrant from the council before work starts.
The planning position for a specific Clydebank address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of Scottish Water, which we check during design.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Where work affects a shared wall or a neighbour's land, we agree access, protection and making good with your neighbour in writing before work starts.
Applications are decided by your council as planning authority.

Your questions about a pitched roof extension in Clydebank
How long does a pitched roof extension take to build in Clydebank?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–12 weeks design and approvals.
Do you cover all of Clydebank?
Yes. We cover Clydebank and the surrounding parts of Dunbartonshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Clydebank, 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 £1,810 to £3,430 per m² including VAT, a little more than a flat roof because of the roof structure and tiles.
