Do I need planning permission in Feltham?
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.
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).
Working in Feltham
We cover Feltham and the postcode districts TW3, TW4, TW6, TW12, TW13, TW14. We also work in nearby Hanworth (2 miles), Hounslow (3 miles), Hampton (3 miles), Heston (3 miles).
In London, space is at a premium and gardens are often short, so side returns, wraparounds and carefully planned rear extensions tend to make the most of every metre.
When a single-storey extension makes sense
- Homeowners who want open-plan living onto the garden
- Terraced houses that want a deeper kitchen across the full width
- Semi-detached and detached houses with a usable rear garden
Depth is the big decision. Every extra metre adds floor area but also takes garden and can push you out of permitted development. We draw the room at two or three depths so you can see the trade-off in space, light and cost before anything is fixed.

How long does a single-storey extension take to build in Feltham?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–12 weeks design and approvals.
How much does a single-storey extension cost per square metre?
Our guide range is about £2,280 to £4,420 per m² including VAT, depending on specification. A standard-spec 4 m × 5 m room usually lands at £53,000 to £68,000 in Feltham, plus design and council fees.
How deep can a single-storey rear extension be without planning permission?
In England, up to 3 m beyond the original rear wall on a semi-detached or terraced house and 4 m on a detached house, within height and boundary limits. Through the larger home extension prior approval scheme those depths rise to 6 m and 8 m. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland use their own rules, which we check for your address.
