Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Royal Wootton Bassett?
Planning for a wraparound extension in Royal Wootton Bassett follows the English householder rules.
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 Royal Wootton Bassett like to extend?
Stone-built and rendered houses are common around Royal Wootton Bassett, so matching the walling is a design decision in its own right: natural stone, reconstituted stone or a render finish across old and new.

FAQ
Wraparound extension questions in Royal Wootton Bassett
What postcode areas do you cover around Royal Wootton Bassett?
Including SN4 and SN5, and the surrounding Wiltshire area.
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 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.
Is the site visit in Royal Wootton Bassett free?
Yes. We visit, measure up and talk through the options with no cost and no obligation.
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.
