Working in Batley
Across WF12, WF13, WF15, WF16, WF17, we can visit, measure and advise. Neighbouring towns we cover include Dewsbury (1 mile), Heckmondwike (2 miles), Liversedge (2 miles), Ossett (3 miles).
For homes towards South Yorkshire, Darton is around 9 miles away. Yorkshire and the Humber combines stone-built terraces in the Pennine towns with brick semis and newer estates elsewhere, so materials and roof details need matching with care.
Who a wraparound extension suits
- Families who want kitchen, dining and living in one space
- Semi-detached houses with a side passage
- Terraced houses that want the largest ground floor possible
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.
Planning and approvals in Batley
In England a wraparound extension is assessed as both a side and a rear extension, and the combination usually falls outside permitted development, so most need a householder planning application (£548 from 1 April 2026).
Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (formerly AONBs), the Broads and World Heritage Sites have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.
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).
