Property styles in Sevenoaks
Sevenoaks has a significant stock of larger detached and semi-detached Victorian, Edwardian and interwar houses on generous plots, which frequently suit substantial rear or double-storey extensions and outbuilding conversions.
Planning considerations
Sevenoaks District Council is the local planning authority. A large proportion of the district is designated Green Belt, and parts fall within the Kent Downs National Landscape, both of which place additional constraints on new structures and extensions beyond normal permitted development limits.

FAQs
Bathrooms in Sevenoaks: FAQs
Do you provide bathrooms across all of Sevenoaks?
Yes, we cover the TN13 postcode area in full, including Riverhead, Dunton Green, Weald, Bat & Ball, Kippington.
How long does a bathroom refit take?
A straightforward like-for-like refit is typically completed within one to two weeks. Layout changes, structural floor work for level access, or supply delays on fittings can extend this — we set out a realistic programme once the design is fixed.
What is tanking and why does it matter?
Tanking is a waterproof membrane applied to walls and floors in wet areas before tiling, to prevent water getting into the structure behind or beneath the tiles. It is standard practice on showers and wet rooms and is included in our bathroom specification.
Does Green Belt designation affect extending a house in Sevenoaks?
Green Belt policy applies primarily to new buildings and significant additions that would be disproportionate to the original dwelling, rather than ruling out modest extensions. We assess this against your specific property and its planning history.
