A house extension can cost between £20,000 and £70,000 + VAT. This range of prices is representative of different styles of extension, for example, your house extension would cost more if you were adding a bathroom or kitchen and a second-storey extension would also push the cost up further.
You will need planning permissions for a home extension if the size of the extension is more than half of the land around the original house. Or, if your home is being brought nearer to a public highway, or if you plan on building higher than the tallest point of your home. You'll also need planning permission if you're planning on using materials different to those currently used in your home.
The maximum size extension you can build without planning permission will depend on the size of the land around your original house. When building without planning permission your extension can be no larger than half the area of land around your original house. Single-storey rear extensions must also be no larger than 3 metres if semi-detached or 4 metres if detached.
A single-storey extension can cost between £20,000 and £40,000 + VAT, however, this price could increase depending on the complexity and size of your project. You may pay between £1,200 and £1,500 per square metre for your extension, so a small 3 x 5 metre single-storey extension could cost as little as £18,000 + VAT, depending on the materials used.
