What should I budget for a single-storey extension in Beverley?
Labour and material costs vary across the UK, so for Beverley we use our Yorkshire and the Humber factor (×0.94). The ranges include VAT and exclude design, structural and council fees.
Typical rates in Beverley: £1,640 to £3,200 per m² including VAT, depending on specification.
| Size | Essential | Standard | Premium |
|---|---|---|---|

Will the council need to approve it?
In England a single-storey rear extension can usually go up to 3 m beyond the original rear wall of a semi-detached or terraced house, or 4 m on a detached house, without a planning application, provided it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m within 2 m of a boundary and, with other buildings, covers no more than half the land around the original house. The larger home extension prior approval scheme raises those depths to 6 m and 8 m, with neighbours notified and a 42-day decision.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
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.
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).
Local to Beverley
Postcode districts we cover around Beverley include HU17. We also work in nearby Hull (8 miles), Brough (10 miles), Bridlington (19 miles), Goole (21 miles).
Yorkshire and the Humber combines stone-built terraces in the Pennine towns with brick semis and newer estates elsewhere, so materials and roof details need matching with care.
Included in a typical project
- Foundations, drainage and groundworks
- Planning route checked and the right approval obtained
- Building regulations drawings and structural calculations
- Measured survey and design
- Flat or pitched roof, rooflights or lantern
From first visit to completion
Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.
Free site visit
First, a site visit: we look at the house, garden, access and drains and listen to what you need.
Design and approvals
We draw the design, agree it with you and handle planning or permitted development checks and building regulations.
Fixed written price
You receive a written, itemised price and programme. Nothing starts until you are happy with it.
Build and sign-off
The build is managed from start to finish, inspected at each stage and signed off on completion.
Your questions about a single-storey extension in Beverley
Do I need building regulations approval in Beverley?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Will my neighbours in Beverley 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.
Do you cover all of Beverley?
Yes. We cover Beverley and the surrounding parts of East Riding of Yorkshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Will I need a steel beam?
Almost always. Opening up the rear wall to join the new room to the house needs a beam, usually steel, sized by a structural engineer. It is included in our quotes.
How much does a single-storey extension cost per square metre?
Our guide range is about £1,640 to £3,200 per m² including VAT, depending on specification. A standard-spec 4 m × 5 m room usually lands at £38,500 to £49,000 in Beverley, plus design and council fees.
