Extensions in and around Manor Park
Our survey diary covers Manor Park, including E6, E7, E12, IG1. The same team covers Ilford (1 mile), West Ham (2 miles), Barking (2 miles), Leytonstone (2 miles), all within easy reach.
For homes towards Essex, Waltham Abbey is around 10 miles away. London's housing is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many with a rear outrigger and a side return, and 1930s semis in the outer boroughs. Conservation areas are common, so the planning check comes first.
Included in a typical project

Do I need planning permission in Manor Park?
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.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Your questions about a single-storey extension in Manor Park
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Manor Park, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–12 weeks design and approvals.
Do you cover all of Manor Park?
Yes. We cover Manor Park and the surrounding parts of Greater London. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
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.

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 Manor Park, plus design and council fees.
