Comments (1)Do you have an idea of the size, the materials you would like it built from and broadly where you are in the country. I may or perhaps someone else might be able to point you towards a company that can help....See MoreRear single storey extension in terrace house. How far can I extend?
Comments (1)Yes you can extend 6m and keep the eaves at the party wall line at a max of 3m high, this falls under permitted development with the caveat that your local authority will liaise with all of your neighbours - if any of them are unhappy with it then it will be turned down and you would require full permission. My advice - go and see your neighbours with drawings and keep the height of the party wall down, 3m is high; 2.4m can often be more acceptable David...See MoreHELP...Utilising space in a single storey extension

Comments (4)That looks like a lovely spacious house, big windows etc! I know what you mean about pebble dash but it looks like it's in good condition and I agree that it would look a bit odd if you paint it, unless any other houses in the street have already done it. Extensions are usually built in a modern style which complements rather than matches the original house. In terms of the materials used, there may be a style that's developed locally for modern buildings, so it's a good idea to have a look around, even having a look at your council planning website as that will give you a good feel for what is being passed by the planners. Eg we're having an extension built at the moment on our 1930s house which will be a mix of wood cladding and cotswold stone - we're in the cotswolds so this works with the local vernacular and other modern buildings around here....See MoreRebecca Low
