Will the council need to approve it?
In England an annexe that stays part of the household and connects to the house is assessed as an extension, but its size usually takes it beyond permitted development, so a householder application describing the ancillary use is the normal route.
The planning position for a specific Great Wyrley address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Building regulations approval is separate from planning. In England you can use the council's building control team or a registered building control approver; a full plans application gets the drawings checked before work starts, and the inspector signs the work off with a completion certificate.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Site visits are available across Great Wyrley (WS6, WS11). The same team covers Cannock (2 miles), Burntwood (4 miles), Rugeley (7 miles), Lichfield (8 miles), all within easy reach.
The West Midlands has a large stock of 1930s and post-war semi-detached houses, which are well suited to rear, side and over-garage extensions, plus Victorian terraces in the older inner areas.

Our process, step by step
Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.
Free site visit
A designer visits, takes measurements and photos, and discusses layouts, budget and timing with you.
Design and approvals
Once the layout is agreed, we deal with the council: planning permission or written confirmation that none is needed, plus building control.
Fixed written price
We confirm the build price in writing, based on the approved drawings and the finishes you have chosen.
Build and sign-off
Work is carried out to the agreed programme, inspected by building control and signed off at the end.
Questions people ask about annexe extensions
Will my neighbours in Great Wyrley be involved?
If a planning application or prior approval is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.
How long does an annexe extension take to build in Great Wyrley?
On site, typically 16 to 24 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 10–16 weeks design and approvals.
Who do I contract with for an annexe extension in Great Wyrley?
Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.
Will an annexe affect council tax?
It can. Some annexes are assessed separately for council tax, with discounts or exemptions in some cases when occupied by a relative. Check with the Valuation Office Agency (England and Wales), your local assessor (Scotland) or Land & Property Services (Northern Ireland).
Can the annexe have its own front door?
Yes, many do, but it should still connect to the main house to stay clearly part of it.
