Wraparound extension in Leeds

How much does a wraparound extension cost in Leeds?

For Leeds we work from the Yorkshire and the Humber rate: £2,050–£3,350 per square metre of new floor, including VAT, standard specification. Yorkshire prices sit below our West Midlands baseline; matching natural stone is the main variable.

These are guide ranges; the written quote after the survey is the figure that counts.

Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Leeds?

Here is how the rules in England apply to a wraparound extension in Leeds.

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. 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 Leeds like to extend?

Leeds 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.
