Question 1

What does a rear extension cost on a Victorian or Edwardian terrace in Cricklewood, NW2?

Accepted Answer

A single-storey rear addition on an NW2 terrace — foundations, structural steel at the opening, roof covering, rooflight, and basic first-fix — typically falls between £33,000 and £56,000. The range reflects differences in overall width, how complex the rear wall is structurally, and whether the kitchen is being refitted at the same time. Running extension and kitchen refit as a combined package almost always costs less than commissioning them separately, because groundworks, the structural opening, and utility connections are shared across both scopes. We price the two scenarios at the survey for a direct comparison.

Question 2

Does a rear extension on an NW2 terrace in Cricklewood require planning permission?

Accepted Answer

Most rear extensions on Brent's NW2 terraces qualify under permitted development, which ordinarily allows a single-storey addition up to three metres deep on an attached house, or up to six metres under the Prior Approval neighbour consultation scheme if no neighbour raises a valid objection within the statutory period. Key exceptions are properties within or adjoining a conservation area, houses where planning conditions have removed PD rights, and any design that exceeds height or eaves limits. We establish the planning position for your specific NW2 address at the site visit and handle the neighbour consultation or full application if either is needed.

Question 3

What does a complete bathroom renovation cost in a Cricklewood terrace, NW2?

Accepted Answer

A full bathroom strip-out and refit in an NW2 Victorian or Edwardian terrace — demolition, waterproofing, new sanitary ware, full tiling, and plumbing and electrics brought to current standard — generally lands between £9,000 and £18,500. The upper end reflects a wet-room layout, large-format floor-to-ceiling tiling, or a reconfiguration involving the soil stack. Our quote separates sanitary ware, tiling, and labour onto individual lines, making it clear what each choice adds before the project is agreed.
