Planning and approvals in Chadderton

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.

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 is included

  • Full internal finish or kitchen-ready shell
  • Survey, design and 3D layout options
  • Householder planning application
  • Structural design for the corner and openings
  • Roof with glazing along the side return

Working in Chadderton

Site visits are available across Chadderton (M24, M35, OL1, OL2, OL8, OL9). We also work in nearby Oldham (1 mile), Royton (2 miles), Middleton (2 miles), Failsworth (3 miles).

For homes towards Lancashire, Rawtenstall is around 12 miles away. Across the North West, terraced houses with small rear yards suit compact rear and side return extensions, while suburban semis have room for more.

How the project works

Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

  1. Free site visit

    It starts with a visit to your house to measure, check access and talk through ideas and budget.

  2. 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.

  3. Fixed written price

    We confirm the build price in writing, based on the approved drawings and the finishes you have chosen.

  4. Build and sign-off

    We build it with one project manager, book the building control inspections and hand over the completion certificate.

Common questions in Chadderton

Do I need building regulations approval in Chadderton?

Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.

Will my neighbours in Chadderton 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.

Do you cover all of Chadderton?

Yes. We cover Chadderton and the surrounding parts of Greater Manchester. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

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.

Do wraparound extensions need planning permission?

Usually, yes. In England the side element counts as a side extension and the rear element as a rear extension, and the combination normally falls outside permitted development. A householder application costs £548 in England from 1 April 2026.
