Wraparound extension in Burngreave
Wraparound extension in Burngreave: 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.
We cover Burngreave (S1, S3 and S4) as part of our South Yorkshire work. Wraparounds are the natural next step for the end-of-terrace and Victorian houses in South Yorkshire where a side return alone would leave the room too narrow.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Burngreave?
Here is how the rules in England apply to a wraparound extension in Burngreave.
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. 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 Burngreave like to extend?
Burngreave has through terraces and some back-to-backs as well as later semis; back-to-backs have little or no rear space, so we look at side or loft options there.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Burngreave
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.
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.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Burngreave house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
