Wraparound extension in Ardrossan
We plan and build wraparound extensions for homeowners in Ardrossan. An L-shaped extension that fills the side return and runs across the back. Start with a free site visit, then a written price once the design is agreed.
Ardrossan sits in Ayrshire, with postcode districts including KA21 and KA22. Wraparounds are the natural next step for the end-of-terrace and Victorian houses in Ayrshire where a side return alone would leave the room too narrow.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Ardrossan?
Planning for a wraparound extension in Ardrossan follows the Scottish householder rules.
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. We check your house's planning history and any conservation area before drawing, so the route is clear before you spend on plans.
What are homes in Ardrossan like to extend?
Ardrossan has sandstone villas and terraces, post-war semis and four-in-a-block flats. Flats need planning permission for an extension, and every project needs a building warrant before work starts. In Ardrossan we usually draw the wraparound and a simpler rear-only option side by side, so the planning risk and cost difference are clear.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Ardrossan
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Ardrossan?
Many single-storey rear extensions are permitted development under Class 1A, but not in conservation areas; you always need a building warrant before work starts.
Is the site visit in Ardrossan free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
Is it worth it over a side return alone?
If you want a dining table and a sofa as well as the kitchen, usually yes.
Who will build my extension?
Vetted building teams working under contract to us. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd for the design and the build.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Ardrossan house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
Can I get a price without a visit?
Our online guide-price tool gives a range in a couple of minutes. A written price needs a survey.
