Covering County Fermanagh
Towns we cover in County Fermanagh include Enniskillen, Lisnaskea. In Northern Ireland, extension projects follow the NI planning rules and council building control, which we account for from the first survey.
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.
The planning position for a specific County Fermanagh address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Northern Ireland has no Party Wall Act. Where work is on or close to a shared boundary, we agree access and protection with your neighbour in writing before work starts.
Applications are decided by your council, which handles local planning in Northern Ireland.

Questions people ask about pitched roof extensions
Will my neighbours in County Fermanagh be involved?
If a planning application is needed, the council notifies neighbours. Where work is close to a shared boundary, we agree access and protection with them in writing.
Do I need building regulations approval in County Fermanagh?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Who do I contract with for a pitched roof extension in County Fermanagh?
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.
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.
