Extensions in and around Aylesbury
Across HP17, HP19, HP20, HP21, HP22, we can visit, measure and advise. We also work in nearby Chesham (12 miles), Bletchley (13 miles), High Wycombe (13 miles), Amersham (13 miles).
Just over the Oxfordshire border, Thame is about 9 miles away. Homes across the South East range from Victorian terraces in the older town centres to large detached houses on the edges, so the right extension type varies street by street.
Planning and approvals in Aylesbury
In England a single-storey side return infill is often permitted development if it stays within the height limits and is no wider than half the width of the original house. Conservation areas, listed buildings and flats always need an application, and the boundary wall usually brings in the Party Wall Act.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
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).
What should I budget for a side return extension in Aylesbury?

Side return extension questions answered
Do you cover all of Aylesbury?
Yes. We cover Aylesbury and the surrounding parts of Buckinghamshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Who do I contract with for a side return extension in Aylesbury?
Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Aylesbury, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Can I combine a side return with a rear extension?
Yes. That combination is a wraparound extension, which adds the most space to a terraced house.
How much does a side return extension cost?
Our guide range is about £2,350 to £4,260 per m² including VAT, so a typical 2 m × 5.5 m infill lands around £29,500 to £37,000 at standard spec in Aylesbury, more in London.
