Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Bedworth?
Here is how the rules in England apply to a wraparound extension in Bedworth.
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 Bedworth like to extend?
Bedworth has a lot of post-war semis and estate houses with long gardens and side access, which makes rear extensions quicker to build.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Bedworth
What postcode areas do you cover around Bedworth?
Including CV12, and the surrounding Warwickshire area.
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.
What roof suits a wraparound?
A flat roof with a lantern, a standing-seam pitched roof or a glazed roof over the side leg. The choice usually follows the first-floor windows above.
Do I need planning permission for a rear extension in Bedworth?
Often not for a single-storey rear extension of up to 3 metres (4 metres on a detached house) under permitted development, or up to 6 or 8 metres with prior approval, unless the house is in a conservation area or its rights have been removed.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In England, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or the foundations are close to a neighbour's building. We serve the notices.
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.
