thats interesting I would have thought this was a rear extension only as the first extension isnt original. many thanks

thank you for your reply. The conditions have not been removed as seen the paperwork with regards to the previous consent. Guess was just worried as this extension is attached to a previous extension which is over PD.

Hi hoping someone can assist. We are proposing to build a ground floor extension at the rear of our property 2.5m deep. The back wall of the original property is flat (so extension is not a side extension with respect to the main part of the dwelling). However a previously built ground floor...

The poster said the architect has done drawings and the works are simple. If he is confident that his design complies with Building Regs and has done a full spec I see no reason why a Building Notice cannot be used. If he’s got the design wrong then he’s liable not the builder. believe me I’ve...

You mean to tell me a loft conversion and ground floor extension can’t be done under a Building Notice. A competent architect and structural engineer would mean they know all the Uvalues, calculations, fire escape, details etc which comply with Building Regs and therefore could be done under a...

From experience (I submit probably 4-5 of these type of jobs a week) that you can submit a Building Notice or a Full Plans Application on this type of project. However Full Plans is the better way to go if there is sufficient time for the council to check through the job prior to works...

Hi - I have used this forum in the past for projects and feedback has been useful. I have been asked by a neighbour to assist with a rear (possibly side extension) at a property which is located within a National Park. The plan is for under Stage A to completely demolish an existing ground...

Looking at a new project where previous owners had built a conservatory to the rear of the property and is connected to a once detached garage. The property is semi-detached and we are looking to demolish the conservatory and re-build a 5.4m deep single storey extension. The maximum height and...

In October 2018 Planning Consent was granted for a new replacement dwelling and garage to the rear. We now want to change the shape of the garage (more square than rectangle on plan). The overall footprint will be slightly less. The maximum height of the roof will be the same as we are planning...

thank you both for your replys. done a quick sketch showing proposed extension

Good afternoon, Looking to submit a Larger House Extension. The extension is at the rear with a maximum dimension of 5m deep. However the property is slightly 'L-shaped'. Therefore part of the extension is only projecting 3m. Part of the extension is therefore a side extension as well as a rear...

thank you for your response. It is interesting as I suspect many, many single storey flat roof extensions have been built to bungalows which in theory should have had Planning Applications but were overlooked as you would expect a simple flat roof extension to be PD

Good afternoon all, I am proposing to build a rear extension to my bungalow. The bungalow has a standard pitch roof with the soffit at the top of the windows. (eaves height 2.7m). Looking through the Permitted Development rights it states that the eaves must be no higher than the existing...

the footprint of the original bungalow was everything you see in the drawing with the exception of the rear addition named playroom. Ian

it is 100% a side extension. the previous architect tried to claim the extension was a rear extension due to the location of the front door (and then tried to go for the extra large rear extension application). needless to say he was put right by the planning department. the front door does not...

thank you tony for your answer. much appreciated. Ian

Hi first time poster on here. I am a structural engineer by trade but now and again get asked how big can i build my extension and sometimes the Permitted Development guidlines online just don't clarify certain things... looking to build a side extension to an existing bungalow (not designated...
