The brief and property
The rear garden boundary was close to the property and the extension's rear wall came within 1m of an adjoining garage structure, requiring a party fence award. The existing kitchen was in a poor state and functionally unusable — planning was required as the proposed extension depth exceeded Permitted Development limits for the conservation area. A large neighbouring lime tree had a TPO designation requiring an arborist's report.
Work completed
We commissioned an arborist report confirming the extension footprint lay outside the lime tree's root protection area. Planning was obtained in 8 weeks, the party fence award agreed amicably, and a phased construction sequence allowed the kitchen to be demolished and rebuilt without the family being without cooking facilities for more than five days.
