What do you get with a wraparound extension?
A wraparound extension combines a side return and a rear extension into one L-shaped build, giving the biggest possible ground-floor space on terraced and semi-detached houses. It usually creates a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living area across the back of the house.
- Pitched, flat or glazed roof with rooflights
- Glazing, insulation, plastering and electrics
- Optional kitchen supply and installation
