What goes into a single-storey extension?
A single-storey extension adds one level of new floor space to the back or side of a house, usually to open up a kitchen, dining or family room. It is the most common way to gain space without moving, and many can be built without a planning application.
- Planning and building regulations checks under Welsh rules
- Measured survey and design drawings
- Foundations, drainage and structural steel

How is a single-storey extension approved in Haverfordwest?
In Wales the planning rules, including what counts as permitted development, are set by the Welsh Government, and Welsh building regulations differ in places from England’s. We check both against your house before drawings are finalised, and handle party wall notices where needed.
Wales has its own permitted development rules, set by the Welsh Government. Small single-storey rear extensions can often go ahead without an application, but the limits differ from England's and there is no larger-extension prior approval route, so we check the current Welsh rules for your house before drawings are finalised.
What should I think about before starting?
- Drains under the footprint may need diverting or a build-over agreement with the water company.
- Kitchens and doors have long lead times, so we order them early.
