Homes in the South West

In the South West, matching local stone, render or slate is often the main design question, and conservation areas and listed buildings are common in historic towns.

What do you get with 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
  • Party wall process with both neighbours if needed
  • Glazing, insulation, plastering and electrics

What approvals does a wraparound extension need in England?

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?

  • Both neighbours may need party wall notices.
  • An open-plan space this size needs a heating plan, often underfloor heating.
