Wraparound extension in Craigavon

Craigavon sits in County Armagh, with postcode districts including BT64, BT65 and BT66. 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.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Craigavon?
The planning route for a wraparound extension in Craigavon is set by Northern Ireland's householder rules and your council.
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. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development or a planning application.
What are homes in Craigavon like to extend?
Semis and detached houses are typical of Craigavon, and many have room for a rear extension within Northern Ireland's permitted development limits.
