What is included

  • Party wall notice support (England and Wales)
  • Structural design for the corner and openings
  • Foundations, drainage and any manhole relocation
  • Survey, design and 3D layout options
  • Householder planning application
  • Roof with glazing along the side return

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.

Local to Farnham

Across GU9, GU10, we can visit, measure and advise. The same team covers Godalming (8 miles), Camberley (9 miles), Guildford (10 miles), Woking (13 miles), all within easy reach.

For homes towards Hampshire, Aldershot is around 3 miles away. The South East has a broad mix of 1930s semis, post-war estates, newer developments and period cottages, and many houses have enough garden for a generous rear extension.

Do I need planning permission in Farnham?

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).

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).

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

    First, a site visit: we look at the house, garden, access and drains and listen to what you need.

  2. Design and approvals

    We produce the drawings and structural design, and manage the approvals so they are in place before work starts.

  3. Fixed written price

    With the design and specification agreed, you get a fixed written price and a start date.

  4. Build and sign-off

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

Wraparound extension questions answered

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Farnham, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

Do you cover all of Farnham?

Yes. We cover Farnham and the surrounding parts of Surrey. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

Who do I contract with for a wraparound extension in Farnham?

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 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.

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.
