Local to Wallsend
Site visits are available across Wallsend (NE6, NE7, NE12, NE28, NE31, NE32). We also work in nearby Hebburn (1 mile), Jarrow (2 miles), Felling (3 miles), Gosforth (3 miles).
Cramlington, in Northumberland, is roughly 7 miles from Wallsend and also on our list. Across the North East, houses often have rear yards or modest gardens, so compact, well-lit single-storey extensions make the biggest difference.

Planning rules that apply in Wallsend
In England the main routes are permitted development (ideally confirmed with a lawful development certificate, £274), larger home extension prior approval (£249, 42 days) and a householder planning application (£548, normally 8 weeks), with council fees as set from 1 April 2026.
In a conservation area, national park, National Landscape, the Broads or a World Heritage Site the permitted development limits are tighter (no side or two-storey extensions without an application). Listed homes need listed building consent, and if permitted development rights have been removed, any extension needs an application.
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).

With the design and specification agreed, you get a fixed written price and a start date.
Build and sign-off
We build it with one project manager, book the building control inspections and hand over the completion certificate.
Questions answered
Do you cover all of Wallsend?
Yes. We cover Wallsend and the surrounding parts of Tyne and Wear. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Wallsend, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Who do I contract with in Wallsend?
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.
How much do extension plans cost?
Our design packs range from about £1,050 to £5,050 including VAT, from planning drawings only to a full pack with building regulations drawings, structural calculations and 3D views. Council fees are separate.
Do I need an architect?
Not necessarily. For most extensions an experienced designer or architectural technologist is enough. For listed buildings or complex sites an architect’s input can help.
