What is a double-storey extension?

A double-storey extension adds new rooms on both the ground and first floor in one build, typically a larger kitchen or living space downstairs and an extra bedroom or bathroom above. Because the roof and foundations are shared, the cost per square metre is usually lower than a single-storey extension.

Planning and building rules in Bridlington

English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.

Two-storey rear extensions can sometimes be permitted development in England (no more than 3 m deep, at least 7 m from the rear boundary, roof pitch to match), but most two-storey and all two-storey side extensions need householder planning permission.

What should Bridlington homeowners check first?

Side extensions close to a boundary are often set back or stepped down so they do not create a terraced effect.
The first-floor link can mean moving a bathroom or reshaping the landing.

Around 14 to 24 weeks on site, plus the planning period before that.
