Planning and approvals in Newquay

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 Newquay address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.

Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Included in a typical project

  • Front door, glazing and electrics
  • Brick, render or oak frame walls
  • Design to suit the house style
  • Planning check against the porch limits
  • Tiled, slate or flat roof

Covering Newquay

Site visits are available across Newquay (TR7, TR8). Neighbouring towns we cover include Truro (10 miles), St Austell (14 miles), Redruth (14 miles), Bodmin (16 miles).

In the South West, local stone, render and brick vary from town to town, so matching materials is a big part of designing an extension that looks right.

How the project works

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

    It starts with a visit to your house to measure, check access and talk through ideas and budget.

  2. Design and approvals

    Drawings are prepared and agreed with you, then submitted for the right planning route and building regulations approval.

  3. Fixed written price

    You receive a written, itemised price and programme. Nothing starts until you are happy with it.

  4. Build and sign-off

    We build it with one project manager, book the building control inspections and hand over the completion certificate.
