Is a utility room extension right for your house?
- Kitchens that have run out of space for appliances
- Houses with a side passage or small rear corner
- Busy family homes
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.
Planning rules that apply in Malvern
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.
The planning position for a specific Malvern address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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).
Local to Malvern
Postcode districts we cover around Malvern include WR14. Nearby, we also take on projects in Worcester (7 miles), Droitwich Spa (13 miles), Stourport-on-Severn (16 miles), Evesham (16 miles).
For homes towards Herefordshire, Ledbury is around 7 miles away. Across the West Midlands, brick-built semis with long gardens are common, so single-storey and two-storey rear extensions are popular choices.
Our process, step by step
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
Once the layout is agreed, we deal with the council: planning permission or written confirmation that none is needed, plus building control.
Fixed written price
We confirm the build price in writing, based on the approved drawings and the finishes you have chosen.
Build and sign-off
We build it with one project manager, book the building control inspections and hand over the completion certificate.
Your questions about a utility room extension in Malvern
Do you cover all of Malvern?
Yes. We cover Malvern and the surrounding parts of Worcestershire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Do I need building regulations approval in Malvern?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Will my neighbours in Malvern 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.
How much does a utility room extension cost?
Our guide range is about £1,840 to £3,400 per m² including VAT, with a minimum of around £14,000. An 8 m² standard-spec utility is typically £17,000 to £22,000 in Malvern.
Can a utility have a toilet?
Yes, space permitting. A WC needs drainage and extraction, which we plan into the design.
