Single-Storey Extensions Nuneaton

A single-storey extension is one of the most affordable and practical ways to add space to your home. Whether you’re looking to expand your kitchen into a bright kitchen-diner, create a spacious living room, or add a utility space, a single-storey extension delivers real value without the complexity of a double-storey build.

Parker Grears Developments specialises in single-storey extensions across Nuneaton, Hinckley, Coventry, and throughout Warwickshire. We handle everything from initial design and planning advice through to full project management, ensuring your extension is built to the highest standard on time and within budget.

Why Single-Storey Extensions Are Popular

Single-storey extensions are ideal for homeowners wanting to extend their living space without major structural complexity. They’re typically more affordable than double-storey alternatives, often faster to build, and in many cases can be constructed under Permitted Development Rights without needing a formal planning application.

This makes them a cost-effective solution for adding a kitchen-diner, extending your lounge, creating a new utility room, or even adding a ground-floor bedroom in Nuneaton and the surrounding Warwickshire area.

Permitted Development Rights: Do You Need Planning Permission?

One of the biggest advantages of a single-storey extension is that many can be built under Permitted Development Rights, avoiding the need for a formal planning application.

However, rules apply:

  • Size limits — typically up to a certain depth and coverage depending on your property type
  • Location — extensions in conservation areas or to listed buildings may require consent
  • Building Control — even under Permitted Development, you must notify your local authority and comply with Building Regulations

We provide clear, straightforward advice on whether your extension qualifies. If you do need planning permission, we manage the entire process on your behalf, liaising with Nuneaton Borough Council and handling all documentation.

Our FMB-approved and TrustMark-registered status means we’re fully compliant with all regulations and your local authority trusts our work.

Timescales and Costs for Single-Storey Extensions in Warwickshire

A typical single-storey extension in Nuneaton, Hinckley, or Coventry takes 10 to 16 weeks from start to handover. Exact timescales depend on:

  • Weather conditions
  • Complexity of your site
  • Local authority Building Control inspection intervals
  • Your choice of finishes

Cost Range: Single-storey extensions in Warwickshire typically cost £60,000 to £120,000, depending on size, finishes, and site complexity. We provide a detailed Quantity Surveyor cost plan before work begins, so you know your exact investment upfront.

We also offer stage payment plans, so you’re never paying large lump sums. Typically:
– 20% on signing the contract
– Staged payments as milestones are reached
– Final payment on completion and handover

This gives you peace of mind and ensures transparency throughout the build.
