Working in Stalybridge
Postcode districts we cover around Stalybridge include OL6, OL7, SK14, SK15, SK16. We also work in nearby Dukinfield (1 mile), Ashton-under-Lyne (2 miles), Hyde (2 miles), Denton (3 miles).
Wilmslow, in Cheshire, is roughly 13 miles from Stalybridge and also on our list. The North West has a high share of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with rear yards and outriggers, plus large areas of inter-war semis in the suburbs.
Planning and approvals in Stalybridge
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.
If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Pitched roof extension questions answered
Do you cover all of Stalybridge?
Yes. We cover Stalybridge and the surrounding parts of Greater Manchester. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Will my neighbours in Stalybridge be involved?
If a planning application or prior approval is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.
Who do I contract with for a pitched roof extension in Stalybridge?
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.
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.
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.
