Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Abergele?
Whether your wraparound extension in Abergele needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
In Wales a single-storey side extension can be permitted development if it is no more than 4 metres high and the house ends up no more than 50% wider than the original. Many side return infills on terraced streets, and most wraparounds, go through a householder application.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 also applies in Wales: two months' notice for work to a shared wall and one month for foundations dug close to a neighbour's building.
Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, 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 Abergele like to extend?
Older terraces near the centre and post-war semis further out are typical of Abergele. Sloping sites are common in Wales, so floor levels and retaining walls are designed at the start.
