What is included in a wraparound extension in Rutherglen?

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.

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.
