Single storey extension in Swansea
Many homes in and around Swansea are older solid-wall properties, and coastal exposure makes wind-driven rain and damp a real consideration. 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. Swansea is covered by the same in-house team that works across the West Midlands, with surveys arranged around our regular South Wales work.
Planning and building rules in Swansea
Wales has its own permitted development limits for rear and side extensions. Larger schemes need planning permission, and every extension needs Building Regulations approval, so we confirm the route for your Swansea home before quoting.
