What is a wraparound extension?

Because it removes two external walls, a wraparound needs careful structural design and a good plan for the corner where the steels meet. We design, apply for any permissions, build and finish the shell, and can fit the kitchen as part of the same contract.

Do you need permission for a wraparound extension in Abergavenny?

Planning decisions in Wales are made by the local council, using permitted development rules set by the Welsh Government rather than England’s. Building regulations in Wales have their own approved documents, and the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies to work on shared walls and boundaries.

Wales has its own permitted development rules, set by the Welsh Government. Small single-storey rear extensions can often go ahead without an application, but the limits differ from England's and there is no larger-extension prior approval route, so we check the current Welsh rules for your house before drawings are finalised.

What can change the price or programme?

Roof water from an L-shape needs careful falls and outlets.
An open-plan space this size needs a heating plan, often underfloor heating.
