Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Hedge End?
Planning for a wraparound extension in Hedge End 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 Hedge End like to extend?
Commuter semis and detached houses make up much of Hedge End, and longer gardens make England's prior approval route for deeper rear extensions worth considering.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Hedge End
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Hedge End?
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.
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.
Is the site visit in Hedge End free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
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.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Hedge End house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
