Wraparound extensions in Bootle

Covering Bootle

We work in Bootle (L20) and the places around it, including Litherland, Wallasey and Liverpool.

Homes in the North West

Terraced housing is a defining feature of many North West towns, which brings party walls and narrow access into most projects, with more space to extend on suburban semis.

What do you get with 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.

How is a wraparound extension approved in Bootle?

In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.

In England a wraparound extension is treated as one extension, and because it covers both the side and the rear it does not normally fit within permitted development.

What should Bootle homeowners check first?

Both neighbours may need party wall notices.
An open-plan space this size needs a heating plan, often underfloor heating.
