Covering Grimsby
Grimsby sits 30 miles north-east of Lincoln, with Cleethorpes 2 miles to the east and Hull 16 miles to the north-west.
Homes in the East Midlands
The East Midlands combines red-brick terraces in the cities with a lot of post-war and modern estate housing, so rear extensions, garage conversions and loft conversions are all common.
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.
- Design, planning drawings and structural calculations
- Party wall process with both neighbours if needed
- Steel frame or goalpost for the corner opening
How much does a wraparound extension cost in Grimsby?
Indicative costs for wraparound extensions. London and the South East usually sit towards the top of each range.

How is a wraparound extension approved in Grimsby?
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?
- The corner steel connection is the critical detail and is designed by a structural engineer.
- Both neighbours may need party wall notices.
What are the steps?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
