Covering Wallasey
Postcode districts we cover around Wallasey include CH41, CH43, CH44, CH45, CH46, CH49. The same team covers Birkenhead (3 miles), Bootle (4 miles), Liverpool (4 miles), Litherland (4 miles), all within easy reach.
For homes towards Cheshire, Ellesmere Port is around 12 miles away. The North West has a high share of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with rear yards and outriggers, plus large areas of inter-war semis in the suburbs.
Planning and approvals in Wallasey
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 Wallasey 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).
