Covering Oswestry
Our survey diary covers Oswestry, including SY11. The same team covers Shrewsbury (16 miles), Market Drayton (25 miles), Wellington (25 miles), Telford (28 miles), all within easy reach.
Across the West Midlands, brick-built semis with long gardens are common, so single-storey and two-storey rear extensions are popular choices.
Planning and approvals in Oswestry
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 Oswestry address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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.
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).

Will my neighbours in Oswestry 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.

How much does a porch cost?
Our guide range is about £3,850 to £14,550 including VAT, depending on size, materials and whether it includes a WC.
