Service Overview

A wrap around extension extends both to the side and rear of a property, forming an L-shaped layout. This type of extension delivers the largest increase in ground-floor space and allows for full internal reconfiguration.

Wrap around extensions are suitable for:

  • Semi-detached houses – the most common and effective option

  • End-of-terrace properties – where side access is available

  • Detached homes – allowing for wider, more flexible designs

Common uses for side extensions include:

  • Large open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas

  • Kitchen extensions with island layouts and roof glazing

  • Family spaces with direct garden access

  • Utility rooms, storage, and ground-floor WCs

Wrap around extensions are often chosen when a rear or side extension alone would not provide enough space.

Our Wrap Around Extension Process

Site Visit & Feasibility

We assess boundaries, access, drainage, and existing structure to confirm how the side and rear elements can be combined safely and efficiently.

Design coordination & approvals

We review drawings, structural calculations, and planning requirements to ensure the extension is compliant before construction begins.

Construction & inspections

The build is phased to maintain stability of the existing house, with inspections at foundations, drainage, steel installation, and insulation stages.

Completion & sign-off

Final works are completed, building control approval is secured, and the extension is handed over ready for occupation.

Planning Permission & Building Regulations

Wrap around extensions almost always require planning permission, as they combine side and rear development and have a greater visual and spatial impact.

Planning considerations typically include:

  • Overall footprint and boundary distances

  • Height and roof design

  • Impact on neighbouring properties

  • Loss of light and outlook

All wrap around extensions must meet Building Regulations, including:

  • Structural integrity and steelwork

  • Fire safety and escape routes

  • Drainage and damp protection

  • Thermal performance and ventilation

We coordinate inspections and approvals throughout the build.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to some of the most common questions we’re asked about wrap around extensions.

Do you help with planning permission and drawings?

Yes. We can guide you through the planning process and work alongside architects, structural engineers, and building control where required. If planning permission isn’t needed, we’ll still ensure the extension complies fully with building regulations.

Are you fully insured and building regulations compliant?

Yes. We are fully insured, and all work is carried out in line with current building regulations. Required inspections are arranged and completed at the correct stages of the build.

Will I need to move out while the extension is built?

In most cases, no. Many clients stay in their homes while the extension is being built. We plan the work carefully to minimise disruption and keep the site safe, tidy, and organised.

Do you provide a written quote and clear stages?

Yes. After a site visit, we provide a clear, detailed quote outlining what’s included. We explain each stage of the build so you know exactly what to expect — no surprises

Do wrap around extensions need planning permission?

Yes. Wrap around extensions generally require full planning permission due to their scale and impact.
