Wraparound extension in Plymstock
We plan and build wraparound extensions for homeowners in Plymstock. 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.
Plymstock sits in Devon, with postcode districts including PL9. Wraparounds are the natural next step for the end-of-terrace and Victorian houses in Devon where a side return alone would leave the room too narrow.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Plymstock?
Planning for a wraparound extension in Plymstock 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 Plymstock like to extend?
Stone-built and rendered houses are common around Plymstock, 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 Plymstock
Can I live at home while the extension is built?
Usually yes. Most of the work is outside until the back wall is opened near the end, and that stage is screened off.
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.
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.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In England, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or the foundations are close to a neighbour's building. We serve the notices.
What postcode areas do you cover around Plymstock?
Including PL9, and the surrounding Devon area.
Do you handle building control in Plymstock?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
