Barking IG11
Your local extension builders in Barking
Barking is a residential area with Victorian and Edwardian terraces alongside newer developments such as Barking Riverside.
Whether you are planning a rear extension for a bigger kitchen-diner or a side return to widen a narrow kitchen, we survey your home, talk through the options and give you a clear, itemised quotation with a programme of works.
Planning applications in Barking are handled by the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham. Many home extensions fall under permitted development, but if your home is in a conservation area those rights can be more limited, so we check this at the survey stage and can manage any application for you.
Our base at Ford End, near Chelmsford, is around 25 miles from Barking, so it is well within the area we cover.

Do I need planning permission for an extension in Barking?

Most home extensions take 10 to 18 weeks to build, depending on the size and complexity of the project, planning approvals and the weather.
