Homes in the South East
Many South East homes are inter-war or post-war semis and detached houses with room for rear and side extensions, while historic town centres and villages bring conservation area and listed building controls.
What is included in a wraparound extension in Rottingdean?
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
- Glazing, insulation, plastering and electrics
- Optional kitchen supply and installation

Do you need permission for a wraparound extension in Rottingdean?
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 should I think about before starting?
- 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.
What happens after I enquire?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
