Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Holyhead?
Whether your wraparound extension in Holyhead needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
Welsh side-extension rules limit a single-storey side addition to 4 metres high and a 50% increase in the width of the original house, with tighter limits in conservation areas. Wraparounds usually need a planning application.
In Wales, as in England, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 requires notice to neighbours before work to a shared wall or excavation near their foundations.
Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, and listed buildings need listed building consent. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.
What are homes in Holyhead like to extend?
Holyhead has Victorian terraces near the centre and semis further out. Welsh permitted development allows up to 4 metres at the rear for many houses.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Holyhead
What postcode areas do you cover around Holyhead?
Including LL65, and the surrounding North Wales area.
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.
Does a wraparound need planning permission?
Often yes, because the side and rear parts are judged together. Some fit within permitted development; we check before drawing.
How long does a rear extension take to build in Holyhead?
Most single-storey rear extensions take 10 to 16 weeks on site and two-storey extensions 16 to 26 weeks, after design and approvals.
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 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.
