Wraparound extensions in Broadstairs

Covering Broadstairs

Broadstairs sits 40 miles east of Maidstone, with Ramsgate 2 miles to the south-west and Margate 3 miles to the north-west.

Homes in the South East

The South East has a lot of 1930s and post-war semi-detached housing, well suited to rear extensions and hip-to-gable loft conversions, alongside period properties in conservation areas that need a more careful design.

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 Broadstairs?

English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.

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 Broadstairs homeowners check first?

The corner steel connection is the critical detail and is designed by a structural engineer.
Both neighbours may need party wall notices.
