Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Yate?
The planning route for a wraparound extension in Yate is set by England's householder rules and your council.
Side return infills and the side leg of a wraparound are treated as side extensions in England: single-storey, no more than 4 metres high and no wider than half the original house. They are not permitted development in conservation areas, National Parks or National Landscapes, and a joined wraparound often needs a planning application because the side and rear rules apply together.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in England: you serve notice two months before work to a shared wall, and one month before digging foundations within 3 metres (or 6 metres for deeper foundations) of a neighbour's building. Neighbours can agree in writing; if they dissent, surveyors agree an award.
Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always 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 Yate like to extend?
Stone-built and rendered houses are common around Yate, so matching the walling is a design decision in its own right: natural stone, reconstituted stone or a render finish across old and new.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Yate
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.
How long does a rear extension take to build in Yate?
Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
Will it take a lot of garden?
Less than a deep rear extension of the same area, because part of the space comes from the side passage.
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.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Yate house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.

Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
