Stone-built terraces are typical of many West Yorkshire towns, while red brick dominates in Hull and much of South Yorkshire, so matching materials is a big part of designing an extension here.

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 Cleckheaton?

Projects in England go through two separate checks. Planning (or confirmation that the work is permitted development) comes from the district, borough or unitary council, and building regulations approval comes from the council’s building control team or a registered building control approver. Where work touches a shared wall or digs near a neighbour’s foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 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. Most need householder planning permission, which usually takes around eight weeks once validated.

What can affect a wraparound extension?

Both neighbours may need party wall notices.
