Room to grow, right where you are
Whittle-le-Woods is the kind of place people move to and stay, with the canal on the doorstep and the motorway close by. So when the family grows, the question usually isn’t “where shall we move to?” It’s “how do we make this house work?”
Often, the answer’s at the back of the house. A single storey extension for a proper kitchen-diner, or a knock through to turn two small rooms into one you’ll actually use.
Planning in Whittle-le-Woods
Whittle-le-Woods is in Chorley borough, so planning goes to Chorley Council. Many single storey rear extensions here won’t need planning permission at all under permitted development, though they still need Building Regulations approval. We’ll check your house on the site visit.
What we do in Whittle-le-Woods
One family-run team for the whole job, from the first visit through to handover.

Three of our builds. The full stories go up as Natasha’s photographs come in.


A single-storey kitchen extension, matched brick for brick
The whole point was that you can’t tell where the original house stops and the extension starts.
