Included in a typical project

  • Lead or proprietary flashings to the main wall
  • Roof design matched to the existing pitch and tiles
  • Vaulted ceilings or flat ceilings with storage above
  • Insulation to current building regulations
  • Roof windows positioned for light and ventilation

Matching tiles is harder than it sounds. We source reclaimed or closest-match tiles where the originals are no longer made and agree samples with you before ordering.

Planning and approvals in Daventry

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.

Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.

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).

Extensions in and around Daventry

Our survey diary covers Daventry, including NN11. The same team covers Towcester (11 miles), Northampton (12 miles), Brackley (16 miles), Market Harborough (18 miles), all within easy reach.

Homes across the East Midlands often have usable side land or a driveway beside the house, which opens up side and wraparound options.

Our process, step by step

Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

  1. Free site visit

    First, a site visit: we look at the house, garden, access and drains and listen to what you need.

  2. Design and approvals

    We produce the drawings and structural design, and manage the approvals so they are in place before work starts.

  3. Fixed written price

    With the design and specification agreed, you get a fixed written price and a start date.

  4. Build and sign-off

    Work is carried out to the agreed programme, inspected by building control and signed off at the end.

Your questions about a pitched roof extension in Daventry

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

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

How long does a pitched roof extension take to build in Daventry?

On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–12 weeks design and approvals.

Do I need building regulations approval in Daventry?

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

How much does a pitched roof extension cost?

Our guide range is about £1,760 to £3,320 per m² including VAT, a little more than a flat roof because of the roof structure and tiles.

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.
