Do I need planning permission for an extension?
Rear extensions of up to 40 square metres can be exempt, subject to conditions on size, height and remaining garden space. Check with your council or an architect.
Do I need an architect or engineer?
Structural work needs an engineer. Larger projects benefit from an architect to design the work, handle permissions and certify compliance.
How long does an extension take?

How should I pay a builder?
