Wraparound extension in Tottenham

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

We cover Tottenham (N6, N8, N10 and N15) as part of our Greater London work. Wraparound projects around Tottenham often involve two neighbours, so we start the party wall conversations early.

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

Here is how the rules in England apply to a wraparound extension in Tottenham.

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. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.

What are homes in Tottenham like to extend?

Period terraces in Tottenham sit alongside flats, and the difference matters: houses usually keep permitted development rights, while flats and maisonettes need planning permission for any rear extension.

FAQ

Wraparound extension questions in Tottenham

Do you handle building control in Tottenham?

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

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.

Is it worth it over a side return alone?

If you want a dining table and a sofa as well as the kitchen, usually yes.

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

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.

What postcode areas do you cover around Tottenham?

Including N6, N8, N10, N15, N17 and N22, and the surrounding Greater London area.

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.
