Wraparound extension in Chapeltown
We plan and build wraparound extensions for homeowners in Chapeltown. An L-shaped extension that fills the side return and runs across the back. Start with a free site visit, then a written price once the design is agreed.
Chapeltown and its postcode districts S5 and S35 are part of our South Yorkshire coverage. 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 Chapeltown?
Planning for a wraparound extension in Chapeltown follows the English householder rules.
Side return infills and the side leg of a wraparound are treated as side extensions in England: single-storey, no more than 4 metres high and no wider than half the original house. They are not permitted development in conservation areas, National Parks or National Landscapes, and a joined wraparound often needs a planning application because the side and rear rules apply together.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in England: you serve notice two months before work to a shared wall, and one month before digging foundations within 3 metres (or 6 metres for deeper foundations) of a neighbour's building. Neighbours can agree in writing; if they dissent, surveyors agree an award.
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 Chapeltown like to extend?
Stone terraces and brick semis are typical of Chapeltown. Matching sandstone or gritstone on a terrace is one of the biggest cost variables, and reclaimed stone is often the best match.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Chapeltown
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.
How much does a wraparound extension cost in Chapeltown?
As a guide, £2,050–£3,350 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, L-shaped, about 22 m² of new floor: about £45,000–£73,500 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.
Will it take a lot of garden?
Less than a deep rear extension of the same area, because part of the space comes from the side passage.
How long does a rear extension take to build in Chapeltown?
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 get a price without a visit?
Our online guide-price tool gives a range in a couple of minutes. A written price needs a survey.
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.
