Towns in Lincolnshire
Extensions in and around Lincolnshire
Towns we cover in Lincolnshire include Lincoln, Grimsby, Scunthorpe, Boston, Grantham, Cleethorpes, Spalding, Skegness. Homes across the East Midlands often have usable side land or a driveway beside the house, which opens up side and wraparound options.
When a utility room extension makes sense
- Busy family homes
- Houses with a side passage or small rear corner
- Kitchens that have run out of space for appliances
A good utility works like a back-of-house corridor: in from the garden, boots off, coats on hooks, washing on the way through. We plan the door positions so it doesn't become another room to walk around.

Do I need planning permission in Lincolnshire?
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.
In a conservation area, national park, National Landscape, the Broads or a World Heritage Site the permitted development limits are tighter (no side or two-storey extensions without an application). Listed homes need listed building consent, and if permitted development rights have been removed, any extension needs an application.
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).
