Wraparound extension in Carluke
We plan and build wraparound extensions for homeowners in Carluke. 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.
Carluke is covered from our Lanarkshire round, including ML8. 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.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Carluke?
Here is how the rules in Scotland apply to a wraparound extension in Carluke.
In Scotland side extensions are more restricted than rear ones under householder permitted development, and wraparounds generally need planning permission. A building warrant is required before work starts.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Work to shared walls is governed by property law and the title deeds, so we agree access and protection with neighbours in writing before work begins.
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 Carluke like to extend?
Carluke 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.
