Local to Tyldesley
Site visits are available across Tyldesley (M29, M38, M46, WN7). Nearby, we also take on projects in Atherton (1 mile), Leigh (2 miles), Walkden (3 miles), Westhoughton (3 miles).
Golborne, in Merseyside, is roughly 6 miles from Tyldesley and also on our list. Across the North West, terraced houses with small rear yards suit compact rear and side return extensions, while suburban semis have room for more.
Planning rules that apply in Tyldesley
In England a single-storey side return infill is often permitted development if it stays within the height limits and is no wider than half the width of the original house. Conservation areas, listed buildings and flats always need an application, and the boundary wall usually brings in the Party Wall Act.
The planning position for a specific Tyldesley address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).
What we take care of
- Kitchen-ready shell or full finish
- Removal of the side wall and new steelwork
- New boundary wall or raised party wall
- Design to keep daylight in the middle of the house
- Party wall notice support (England and Wales)

Questions people ask about side return extensions
How long does a side return extension take to build in Tyldesley?
On site, typically 10 to 14 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–12 weeks design and approvals.
Will my neighbours in Tyldesley 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.
Who do I contract with for a side return extension in Tyldesley?
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.
Do side return extensions need planning permission?
In England many single-storey side returns fit within permitted development if they stay within the height limits and are no wider than half the width of the original house. Conservation areas, listed buildings and flats need an application. Other UK nations have their own rules, which we check.
How much does a side return extension cost?
Our guide range is about £2,000 to £3,610 per m² including VAT, so a typical 2 m × 5.5 m infill lands around £25,000 to £31,500 at standard spec in Tyldesley, more in London.
