Start a free quote →Most standard extensions in Bromley qualify as Permitted Development — single-storey rear up to 3m/4m, side extensions up to half the width of the house, under standard national rules. Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas need full planning permission. We confirm eligibility at the free site survey.
Standard permitted development allows single-storey rear extensions up to 3m (attached house) or 4m (detached) in Bromley. Larger extensions up to 6m/8m are allowed under Prior Approval (Class AA). Flats, listed buildings and Article 4 areas in Bromley are excluded from these PD rights.
Our fixed-fee architectural package starts at £1,225 for a Bromley extension (planning + building regs + structural). Typical Bromley build costs are £2,400–£3,500 per square metre including VAT — so a 25m² side return extension is £60,000–£87,500 to construct.
Bromley does not have a borough-specific basement policy beyond the national framework — basement conversions are generally permissible subject to structural, drainage and flood-risk considerations. Thames Water Build Over Agreements apply where you're within 3m of a public sewer.
Most Victorian terraces in Bromley (particularly in Bromley Town) benefit from both — a side return extension infills the narrow side passage to create a wider kitchen, a rear extension projects back into the garden. A wraparound combines the two. We recommend the best option at the free site visit.
Bromley's large 1930s detached and semi-detached in Chislehurst and Bickley terraced and semi-detached stock typically suits rear single-storey extensions (kitchen-diners), side-return infill extensions, or double-storey rear. Wraparound extensions combine both directions for maximum gain. We recommend the most viable option at the free site visit.
