Planning and approvals in Yateley

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.

Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (formerly AONBs), the Broads and World Heritage Sites have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.

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).

Local to Yateley

We cover Yateley and the postcode districts GU46. Nearby, we also take on projects in Fleet (4 miles), Farnborough (5 miles), Aldershot (7 miles), Basingstoke (12 miles).

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.

How the project works

Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

  1. Free site visit

    A designer visits, takes measurements and photos, and discusses layouts, budget and timing with you.

  2. Design and approvals

    We draw the design, agree it with you and handle planning or permitted development checks and building regulations.

  3. Fixed written price

    You receive a written, itemised price and programme. Nothing starts until you are happy with it.

  4. Build and sign-off

    Work is carried out to the agreed programme, inspected by building control and signed off at the end.

Common questions in Yateley

Who do I contract with for a side return extension in Yateley?

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.

How long does a side return extension take to build in Yateley?

On site, typically 10 to 14 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–12 weeks design and approvals.

Do I need building regulations approval in Yateley?

Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.

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.

Do side return extensions need planning permission?

In England many single-storey side returns fit within permitted development if they stay within the height limits and are no wider than half the width of the original house. Conservation areas, listed buildings and flats need an application. Other UK nations have their own rules, which we check.
