Wraparound extension in Wilmslow

We plan and build wraparound extensions for homeowners in Wilmslow. 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.

Wilmslow and its postcode districts SK9 are part of our Cheshire coverage. Wraparounds are the natural next step for the end-of-terrace and Victorian houses in Cheshire where a side return alone would leave the room too narrow.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Wilmslow?

Planning for a wraparound extension in Wilmslow follows the English householder rules.

In England the side part of a side return or wraparound must meet the side-extension rules (one storey, under 4 metres high, no more than half the width of the original house), and those rights do not apply on designated land. Because a wraparound combines a side and a rear extension, many need householder planning permission.

Because rear extensions often sit on or near the boundary, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 usually applies in England. Notices go out one or two months before work depending on the type of work, and a surveyor's award is only needed if a neighbour does not consent.

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 Wilmslow like to extend?

Stone and brick terraces are common around Wilmslow. Where houses back onto a ginnel or alley, deliveries can come in from the rear, which makes the build tidier.

How a wraparound extension in Wilmslow comes together

  1. Look round and measure

    A free visit to see the back of the house, measure it, check the drains and boundaries and hear what you need.

  2. Design and guide price

    Two or three layout options with a guide price for each, so you choose the design knowing what it costs.

  3. Planning and regulations

    We take the design through the right planning route, then produce the construction drawings and engineer's calculations for building control.

  4. Written price, then build

    Once the design and approvals are in place, you get a fixed written price and programme, and we build through to sign-off.

FAQ

Wraparound extension questions in Wilmslow

How much does a wraparound extension cost in Wilmslow?

As a guide, £2,070–£3,380 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, L-shaped, about 22 m² of new floor: about £45,500–£74,500 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.

Is the site visit in Wilmslow free?

Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.

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.

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 Wilmslow house?

We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.

Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Wilmslow?

Often not for a single-storey rear extension of up to 3 metres (4 metres on a detached house) under permitted development, or up to 6 or 8 metres with prior approval, unless the house is in a conservation area or its rights have been removed.
