Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Nigg?
Whether your wraparound extension in Nigg needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
In Scotland side extensions are more restricted than rear ones under householder permitted development, and wraparounds generally need planning permission. A building warrant is required before work starts.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Work to shared walls is governed by property law and the title deeds, so we agree access and protection with neighbours in writing before work begins.
Classes 1A and 1B do not apply in conservation areas, and listed buildings need listed building consent. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development or a planning application, plus the building warrant.
What are homes in Nigg like to extend?
Post-war semis and terraces are common around Nigg, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.
