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.
- Design, planning drawings and structural calculations
- Party wall process with both neighbours if needed
- Pitched, flat or glazed roof with rooflights
What will a wraparound extension cost?
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 Rawtenstall?
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.
- An open-plan space this size needs a heating plan, often underfloor heating.
