Wraparound extension in Eastwood
Wraparound extension in Eastwood: an L-shaped extension that fills the side return and runs across the back. We measure the house, show you what the rules allow, price it in writing and build it.
Eastwood sits in Nottinghamshire, with postcode districts including NG16. Wraparounds are the natural next step for the end-of-terrace and Victorian houses in Nottinghamshire where a side return alone would leave the room too narrow.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Eastwood?
Whether your wraparound extension in Eastwood needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
In England the side part of a side return or wraparound must meet the side-extension rules (one storey, under 4 metres high, no more than half the width of the original house), and those rights do not apply on designated land. Because a wraparound combines a side and a rear extension, many need householder planning permission.
Because rear extensions often sit on or near the boundary, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 usually applies in England. Notices go out one or two months before work depending on the type of work, and a surveyor's award is only needed if a neighbour does not consent.
Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development, prior approval or a planning application.
What are homes in Eastwood like to extend?
Red-brick terraces and semis are typical of Eastwood. Coal-mining legacy areas in parts of the East Midlands can need a Coal Authority check before foundations are designed.
