Planning rules that apply in Hazel Grove

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.

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.

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.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

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

  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

    Work is carried out to the agreed programme, inspected by building control and signed off at the end.

Questions people ask about wraparound extensions

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Hazel Grove, 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 my neighbours in Hazel Grove 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 I need building regulations approval in Hazel Grove?

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

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.
