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

Whether your wraparound extension in Larkhall needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.

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 Larkhall like to extend?

Post-war semis and terraces are common around Larkhall, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.

How a wraparound extension in Larkhall comes together

  1. Survey visit

    We visit free of charge, measure up, check access, drainage and neighbours' extensions, and note what you want the room to do.

  2. Design and guide price

    Two or three layout options with a guide price for each, so you choose the design knowing what it costs.

  3. Planning and regulations

    We take the design through the right planning route, then produce the construction drawings and engineer's calculations for the building warrant.

  4. Build and sign-off

    We build to the approved drawings with regular updates, then hand over the accepted completion certificate and any guarantees from suppliers.
