Homes in Ayrshire
Scottish homes range from city tenements and sandstone terraces to bungalows and modern estates, and the building warrant process shapes the programme for every project.
What goes into 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
- Pitched, flat or glazed roof with rooflights
- Optional kitchen supply and installation
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 |
What approvals does a wraparound extension need in Scotland?
In Scotland the key step is the building warrant, which must be granted before work begins. Planning permission is decided separately by the council, and work on shared walls is handled under your title deeds rather than a party wall act.
Scotland has its own householder permitted development rules, and small single-storey rear extensions are often covered. Whatever the planning position, you need a building warrant from the council before any building work starts, and a completion certificate at the end.
What can affect a wraparound extension?
- The corner steel connection is the critical detail and is designed by a structural engineer.
- Roof water from an L-shape needs careful falls and outlets.
How does the project run?
- 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.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
