Covering Chesterfield
Chesterfield sits 23 miles north of Derby, with Staveley 3 miles to the north-east and Dronfield 4 miles to the north-west.
Homes in the East Midlands
Housing in the East Midlands includes Victorian terraces, inter-war semis and newer estates, with stone-built villages in some areas where conservation controls apply.
What is included in a wraparound extension in Chesterfield?
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.
- Party wall process with both neighbours if needed
- Steel frame or goalpost for the corner opening
- Pitched, flat or glazed roof with rooflights
What will a wraparound extension cost?
What wraparound extensions typically cost. These are guide ranges; the written quote for your house replaces them.
| Wraparound extensions | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Standard specification | £3,400 to £3,800 per m² |
| Good specification | £3,800 to £4,250 per m² |
| High specification | £4,250 to £4,700 per m² |
What approvals does a wraparound extension need in England?
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 can affect a wraparound extension?
- Both neighbours may need party wall notices.
- An open-plan space this size needs a heating plan, often underfloor heating.
What happens after I enquire?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
What people ask before starting
How long does a wraparound take?
Around 12 to 18 weeks on site after approvals.
Glazed roof or solid roof?
A mix usually works best: solid roof with rooflights over the kitchen and a glazed section over the dining area.
Can you visit a house in Chesterfield to quote?
Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
