What is a glazed extension?
A glazed or contemporary extension uses large panes of glass, slim aluminium frames and modern cladding to create a bright room that contrasts with the original house. Frameless corners, structural glass roofs and minimal sliding doors are typical features.
How much does a glazed extension cost in Dinnington?
In Dinnington, a glazed extension typically costs £2,600–£3,900 per m² of floor area, including VAT at 20% (standard rate). For a typical 18 m² project that is roughly £47,000–£70,000. That range is adjusted for Yorkshire and the Humber, where domestic building work typically costs around 7% below the national average. Design, structural calculations and council fees are extra.

Your quote will depend mainly on:
- Lighting and finishes
- Steel framing
- Access for large glass panels
- Glazing size, specification and lead time
Your exact price depends on the survey and drawings. The guide price tool gives a quick range in the meantime.
Do you need planning permission for a glazed extension in Dinnington?
Here is how the rules work for a glazed extension in England. In England a single-storey rear extension is often permitted development: broadly up to 3 metres deep on a semi-detached or terraced house and 4 metres on a detached house, no higher than 4 metres, with eaves no higher than 3 metres within 2 metres of a boundary, and covering no more than half the garden. The larger home extension scheme allows up to 6 or 8 metres if you notify the council first and neighbours have a chance to comment. In conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes the larger home extension route, side extensions and cladding are not permitted development. Flats and houses whose rights have been removed need a planning application, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
Where work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 metres of a neighbour’s building and deeper than its foundations (or within 6 metres for deeper work), the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notices must be served before work starts.
If the answer is not clear-cut, we can apply for formal confirmation before you commit to the build.
What we handle
Handled as part of most glazed extensions:
- Electrics, heating and finishes
- Building control sign-off
- Large-format sliding doors and fixed glazing
- Foundations, walls and insulated roof
- Structural design for steel frames and glass supports
- Energy and overheating calculations where needed
How long does it take?
Build time is typically 12 to 16 weeks on site; glazing lead times can be 6 to 10 weeks. Before that, surveys, drawings and approvals usually take 3 to 4 months, longer if the council asks for changes.
