Wraparound extension in Tyldesley
An L-shaped extension that fills the side return and runs across the back. We design, get the approvals for and build wraparound extensions in Tyldesley and the surrounding area, with one contract from the first survey to building control sign-off.
Tyldesley sits in Greater Manchester, with postcode districts including M29, M46 and WN7. Wraparounds are the natural next step for the end-of-terrace and Victorian houses in Greater Manchester where a side return alone would leave the room too narrow.

How much does a wraparound extension cost in Tyldesley?
For Tyldesley we work from the North West England rate: £2,070–£3,380 per square metre of new floor, including VAT, standard specification. North West prices sit below our West Midlands baseline; access on terraced streets is the main variable.
| Size | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| L-shaped, about 22 m² of new floor | £45,500–£74,500 |
| L-shaped, about 30 m² of new floor | £62,000–£101,500 |
Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.
Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Tyldesley?
Planning for a wraparound extension in Tyldesley 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. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development, prior approval or a planning application.
What are homes in Tyldesley like to extend?
Tyldesley has long runs of terraced houses with back yards and alleys, plus 1930s semis further out. Yard extensions on terraces are often single-storey and close to both boundaries.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Tyldesley
Will I need a structural engineer?
Yes for the beam over the new opening and usually the foundations; we arrange them and their calculations go to building control.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Tyldesley house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
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.
Do you handle building control in Tyldesley?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Tyldesley?
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.
