Do I need planning permission in Norbury?
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 Norbury 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).
How much does a porch extension cost in Norbury?

Extensions in and around Norbury
We cover Norbury and the postcode districts CR7, SE19, SE27, SW16. Nearby, we also take on projects in Upper Norwood (1 mile), Streatham (1 mile), Tooting (2 miles), South Norwood (2 miles).
Ewell, in Surrey, is roughly 7 miles from Norbury and also on our list. Across London, terraced houses with narrow side returns and tight access are the norm, which shapes everything from party wall notices to how materials reach the back garden.
