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
Boilers & Heating in Sevenoaks: FAQs
Do you provide boilers & heating across all of Sevenoaks?
Yes, we cover the TN13 postcode area in full, including Riverhead, Dunton Green, Weald, Bat & Ball, Kippington.
How do I know if my boiler needs replacing rather than repairing?
Frequent breakdowns, rising energy bills, an ageing appliance no longer supported by spare parts, or a failed efficiency check are common signals. We assess the specific appliance and give a straightforward recommendation rather than defaulting to replacement.
Will you register the installation with Building Control?
Yes. Gas Safe registered engineers can self-certify boiler installations under the Competent Person Scheme, which satisfies the Building Regulations notification requirement.
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.
