Wraparound extension in Bellshill
Thinking about a wraparound extension in Bellshill? An L-shaped extension that fills the side return and runs across the back. Our team handles the drawings, the planning route and the build, and your contract is with one company throughout.
We cover Bellshill (ML1, ML4 and ML5) as part of our Lanarkshire work. Wraparounds are the natural next step for the end-of-terrace and Victorian houses in Lanarkshire where a side return alone would leave the room too narrow.

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 Bellshill?
Here is how the rules in Scotland apply to a wraparound extension in Bellshill.
Scottish householder rights treat the side part of a wraparound or side infill more strictly than a plain rear extension, so most need planning permission, and all need a building warrant.
There is no Party Wall Act in Scotland; neighbour matters are handled through the title deeds, common law and written agreement before work starts.
Classes 1A and 1B do not apply in conservation areas, and listed buildings 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 Bellshill like to extend?
Bellshill has sandstone villas and terraces, post-war semis and four-in-a-block flats. Flats need planning permission for an extension, and every project needs a building warrant before work starts.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Bellshill
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.
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.
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.
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.
Do you handle building control in Bellshill?
Yes. We apply for the building warrant before work starts and submit the completion certificate at the end.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Bellshill?
Many single-storey rear extensions are permitted development under Class 1A, but not in conservation areas; you always need a building warrant before work starts.
