Single storey extension in Coventry
Coventry combines post-war housing, built as the city was rebuilt after 1940, with older Victorian and Edwardian terraces. Plenty of them have room at the back or side for a single storey extension, and the right design depends on the plot, the neighbours and how the new room joins the existing house.
What the survey checks
We look at the plot, drainage runs, access for materials and how the new room connects to the house, then plan the structure and the finish together. Our in-house team works in Coventry regularly, so a survey is booked around nearby jobs rather than as a one-off trip.
Planning and building rules in Coventry
Many single storey rear extensions in Coventry are permitted development, within limits on depth and height, and larger ones can go through prior approval or full planning. Every extension needs Building Regulations approval, and we confirm the route before quoting.
