County Armagh
Wraparound extensions in County Armagh
An L-shaped extension that fills the side return and runs across the back. We design and build rear extensions across County Armagh, from Craigavon and Portadown to Armagh, covering single-storey kitchen extensions, two-storey additions, side returns and wraparounds.
In Craigavon we usually draw the wraparound and a simpler rear-only option side by side, so the planning risk and cost difference are clear. Semis and detached houses are typical of County Armagh, and many have room for a rear extension within Northern Ireland's permitted development limits.
How much does a wraparound extension cost in County Armagh?
A wraparound extension in County Armagh is priced at £1,910–£3,130 per square metre including VAT as a guide, before kitchen fit-out and fees. Northern Ireland prices are the lowest in our range.

Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.
Do you need planning permission in County Armagh?
Northern Ireland's rules restrict side extensions more than rear ones, so a side infill or wraparound usually needs a planning application to the council as well as building control approval.
There is no Party Wall Act in Northern Ireland; we agree any work affecting a shared wall or boundary directly with the neighbour, in writing.
Conservation areas, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and listed buildings restrict permitted development in Northern Ireland.

FAQ
Questions people ask
Does a wraparound need planning permission?
Often yes, because the side and rear parts are judged together. Some fit within permitted development; we check before drawing.
How long does a wraparound take?
Usually 14 to 20 weeks on site, longer than a plain rear extension because of the steelwork.
Can the corner be all glass?
Yes, with a steel or aluminium post or a structural glass corner. It needs careful thermal detailing to meet Building Regulations.
Do you cover all of County Armagh?
We cover 3 towns and districts in County Armagh, including Craigavon, Portadown and Armagh.
