TS, when u extend ur kitchen, make sure ur ground is competent, else after several years, differential settlement will occur and cracks would be extensive. just a friendly reminder.

Anyone here done back extension for houses in BU? Those 22x85ft version with the back facing main road.

Does anyone know what is the maximum distance from boundary allowed for ground & 1st floor extensions?

suggest you go to mbpj jabatan bangunan for more detail...they are willing to answer your queries.

We did ours just like that without any approval with the neighbour.
Most of the people near BU11 and BU12 are doing that, but none of them get proper approval from MBPJ.
It is your own risk to do the back extension. But if you really did it, you will get extra 12 ft long for the back yard.

Hi Zen,

A well-planned extension nearly always adds value. But look at house prices in your local area to gauge how much value another bedroom will add to your property – be careful not to overdevelop.

Finding the perfect builder makes a big difference to a project – and isn’t as hard as you might think. Look around for someone who is dedicated, inventive, highly skilled and adheres to the estimate. It might seem like wishful thinking but they do exist.

Below there is a link, you can watch there builders and architects in action and see all the effort that goes into building dream kitchen extension
