FAQs
Builders in Ashford — frequently asked
Do I need planning permission for a house extension in Ashford?
Many single-storey rear extensions on Ashford's post-2000 estates fall under permitted development, but estate properties frequently carry planning conditions or covenants that remove those rights. We check the original consent with Ashford Borough Council before quoting.
Can you extend a Victorian terrace on Beaver Road?
Yes. The usual scheme is a side-return infill to widen the kitchen, which needs a party wall agreement with the neighbour and a steel over the opening. Allow around 14–18 weeks on site.
How long does an Ashford planning application take?
Householder applications are decided in roughly eight weeks once validated. We recommend running the building regulations application in parallel rather than waiting.
Do you cover the villages around Ashford?
Yes — Wye, Bethersden, Charing, Hamstreet and the TN23 to TN27 postcodes. Our Biddenden workshop is a short drive, so site visits and snagging trips carry no distance charge.
Do newer estate homes have permitted development rights?
Not always. Many post-2000 estates had those rights removed by planning condition, so we check the original consent before assuming an extension is permitted development.
Are you fully insured for work in Ashford?
Yes — £5m public liability and £10m employer's liability covering all sites in Ashford and across Kent and East Sussex. Certificates available on request.
