Do conservatories need planning permissions? Half of the land area surrounding the original house or less is covered by other additions or buildings. The rear extension of a single-storey detached building does not protrude past 4m of the original building’s rear wall. If the building is already attached, then the extension should not be more than 3m beyond the rear wall. Extensions in any building that has more than one storey should not extend by more than 3m beyond the original house’s rear wall. In the same vein, the extension should be less than 7m of any boundary opposite the house’ rear wall. No extension in a house is further than the side or principal elevation that faces a highway. The height of the rear extension of a single-storey building is 4m or less. The maximum ridge height and eaves of a house’s extension are not higher than that of the original house. The roof pitch of a building’s extension that is higher than one storey matches the original house. No extension of a building is higher than the highest roof part in the original house. There are no raised platforms, verandas or balconies in the extension. Side extensions are only single storey, with 4m as the maximum height and a width equal to that of the original house or less.
