When a wraparound extension makes sense
- Terraced houses that want the largest ground floor possible
- Families who want kitchen, dining and living in one space
- Semi-detached houses with a side passage
The corner is where wraparounds succeed or fail. We usually use a single steel goalpost or a corner post hidden in a pier, and set the glazing so the new room reads as one space rather than two boxes.
Do I need planning permission in Bangor, Gwynedd?
In Wales a wraparound must satisfy both the rear and side extension limits to be permitted development, so most need a planning application to the council.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent before the foundations go in.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in Wales as in England: notice must be served before work to a shared wall, building on the boundary, or excavating close to a neighbour's foundations.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).

Questions people ask about wraparound extensions
Do you cover all of Bangor, Gwynedd?
Yes, across the whole of Bangor, Gwynedd. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Will my neighbours in Bangor, Gwynedd be involved?
If a planning application is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Bangor, Gwynedd, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Will I need to move a drain?
Often. Side returns frequently contain a manhole or a shared drain. Building near or over a public sewer needs the water company’s consent in England and Wales, which we arrange.
Is a wraparound better than a side return alone?
It adds far more space, but costs more and needs planning permission more often. Our comparison guide sets the two side by side.
