Do I need planning permission in Dinnington?
In England a porch is usually permitted development if its ground floor area is no more than 3 m² measured externally, no part is over 3 m high, and no part is within 2 m of a boundary next to a road.
The planning position for a specific Dinnington address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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).
What should I budget for a porch extension in Dinnington?
For Dinnington we adjust our national guide rates by ×0.94, the factor we use for Yorkshire and the Humber. Figures include VAT; your written quote after the survey replaces them.

Included in a typical project
- Design to suit the house style
- Front door, glazing and electrics
- Brick, render or oak frame walls
- Foundations and drainage for rainwater
- Planning check against the porch limits

Proportion matters on a porch more than on any other extension, because it is at the front. We match the roof pitch and brick and keep the front door in proportion with the house windows.

First, a site visit: we look at the house, garden, access and drains and listen to what you need.
Design and approvals
Once the layout is agreed, we deal with the council: planning permission or written confirmation that none is needed, plus building control.

The price is fixed in writing once the design is settled, with a clear programme and payment stages.
