    Hi,
    I live in a standard 3 bed semi about 10 years old. I was wondering if I would need planning permission if I would extend the two rooms at the back (kitchen and dining room)

    Also, is going direct labour the way to go?

    Also, any pictures of something similiar?

    Any really rough ideas on price. What is the cheapest I could expect to do it for?

    Thanks

    u will need planning permission if it is over approx. 25 sq. m. and as long it is under a certain height and u havent extended before. ]

    Ring Co. Council for full details.

    Approx. prices, direct labour would be €75 - €100 per sq. ft.

    Have a look around at your neighbours or at a similar housing estate, u'll surely find something like what u want

    Providing the house has not been previously extended you can build up to 40 sq. meters to the rear without planning permission.

    The main conditions to this are: Any first floor extension cant exceed 12 sq. meters, windows on first floor extension to be 11 meters from neighboors boundary, height of extension not to exceed height of existing house, min. 25 sq. meters open space/garden to retained to rear of house.

    There are some other minor conditions that would also need to be adhered to also
