Wraparound extension in Viewpark
Thinking about a wraparound extension in Viewpark? 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 Viewpark (G71, G72 and ML3) 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.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Viewpark?
The planning route for a wraparound extension in Viewpark is set by Scotland's householder rules and your council.
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 Viewpark like to extend?
Viewpark 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 Viewpark
Do you handle building control in Viewpark?
Yes. We apply for the building warrant before work starts and submit the completion certificate at the end.
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.
How long does a wraparound take?
Usually 14 to 20 weeks on site, longer than a plain rear extension because of the steelwork.
