Is a pitched roof extension right for your house?
- Conservation-sensitive streets
- Homeowners who prefer a vaulted ceiling
- Traditional, period and rural houses
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.
Local to Rugeley
We cover Rugeley and the postcode districts WS15. Neighbouring towns we cover include Burntwood (5 miles), Cannock (6 miles), Lichfield (7 miles), Great Wyrley (7 miles).
Bloxwich, in West Midlands, is roughly 10 miles from Rugeley and also on our list. The West Midlands has a large stock of 1930s and post-war semi-detached houses, which are well suited to rear, side and over-garage extensions, plus Victorian terraces in the older inner areas.
Planning rules that apply in Rugeley
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).

Common questions in Rugeley
Who do I contract with for a pitched roof extension in Rugeley?
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.
Do you cover all of Rugeley?
Yes. We cover Rugeley and the surrounding parts of Staffordshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Do I need building regulations approval in Rugeley?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
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.
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.
