Covering Heanor
Our coverage around Heanor (DE75) also includes Ripley, Ilkeston and Belper.
Homes in the East Midlands
Across the East Midlands you find everything from city terraces to modern estates and stone villages, so the right extension depends a lot on the street and the materials around it.
What does a wraparound extension involve?
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
- Glazing, insulation, plastering and electrics
What will a wraparound extension cost?
Use these ranges to budget for wraparound extensions; the survey turns them into a fixed price for the agreed specification.
| 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 |
Do you need permission for a wraparound extension in Heanor?
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. Most need householder planning permission, which usually takes around eight weeks once validated.
What should Heanor homeowners check first?
- The corner steel connection is the critical detail and is designed by a structural engineer.
- An open-plan space this size needs a heating plan, often underfloor heating.
From first call to completion
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- 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.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
Wraparound extensions: common questions
Does a wraparound need planning permission?
Usually yes. In England it combines a side and rear extension, which takes it outside permitted development in most cases.
Can we keep part of the kitchen working?
Often, by sequencing the work so the old back wall comes out last. We agree a plan with you before starting.
