Side extensions · Brighton & Hove
Side extensions in Brighton.
A side extension in Brighton reclaims the dead space down the flank of the house and keeps it proportional to the original. We design it, carry it through Brighton & Hove City Council, then build it.
How the path runs in Brighton
The Plan Hub takes side extension work in Brighton from first idea to a finished room. Brief, measured survey, design, planning, then the build itself, in order, held by one team that owns the thread.
Brighton & Hove City Council is the authority that decides any application in Brighton. We prepare the drawings and manage that submission. Once it is approved, our own team builds it.
Common questions
Do I need planning permission for a side extension in Brighton?
Some side extension work falls under permitted development, but limits on size, height and materials apply, and they are tighter in conservation areas and on Green Belt land. Brighton & Hove City Council is the authority that decides any application or issues a lawful development certificate for Brighton. We prepare the drawings and manage that submission for you.
What does the design and planning stage involve for a side extension?
It runs in order: brief, a measured survey of the house, design, then the planning submission to Brighton & Hove City Council. One team holds the thread through each step, so nothing is dropped between people. Once it is approved, that same team builds it.
Does The Plan Hub build the side extension as well?
Yes. We design the work, take it through planning, then build it. The same team that drew your side extension manages the trades and runs the site in Brighton through to completion. If you would rather take the drawings to a builder of your own, you can. The choice stays yours.
