Extensions in and around Strabane
Across BT82, we can visit, measure and advise. Nearby, we also take on projects in Omagh (16 miles), Cookstown (30 miles).
For homes towards County Londonderry, Derry/Londonderry is around 13 miles away. Northern Ireland's housing ranges from city terraces to large numbers of detached houses and bungalows on rural plots, many in render, where single-storey extensions fit easily.
Planning rules that apply in Strabane
In Northern Ireland a small porch is usually permitted development within limits on floor area, height and distance from a road; larger porches need planning permission from the council, and building control rules still apply.
The planning position for a specific Strabane address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of NI Water, which we check during design.
Applications are decided by your council, which handles local planning in Northern Ireland.
What should I budget for a porch extension in Strabane?
For Strabane we adjust our national guide rates by ×0.86, the factor we use for Northern Ireland. Figures include VAT; your written quote after the survey replaces them.
