Wraparound extensions in Hebburn

Covering Hebburn

We work in Hebburn (NE31) and the places around it, including Jarrow, Wallsend and Felling.

Homes in the North East

The North East has terraced housing including Tyneside flats, inter-war semis and post-war estates, so loft conversions, rear extensions and layout changes are popular ways to add space.

What is included in a wraparound extension in Hebburn?

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 Hebburn?

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.

What should Hebburn 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.
