Covering Leeds
Postcode districts we cover around Leeds include LS1, LS2, LS3, LS4, LS7, LS11. Nearby, we also take on projects in Morley (4 miles), Pudsey (5 miles), Horsforth (5 miles), Batley (7 miles).
Homes across Yorkshire and the Humber range from back-to-back and through terraces to large suburban semis, and extension options vary with them.
Will the council need to approve it?
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).
The planning position for a specific Leeds address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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.
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).
Is a wraparound extension right for your house?
- Semi-detached houses with a side passage
- Families who want kitchen, dining and living in one space
- 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.
Our process, step by step
Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.
Free site visit
First, a site visit: we look at the house, garden, access and drains and listen to what you need.
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.
Fixed written price
The price is fixed in writing once the design is settled, with a clear programme and payment stages.
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 Leeds, 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 I need building regulations approval in Leeds?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Who do I contract with for a wraparound extension in Leeds?
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.
How much does a wraparound extension cost?
Our guide range is about £1,880 to £3,480 per m² including VAT. A 25 m² standard-spec wraparound typically lands around £54,000 to £68,500 in Leeds before design and council fees.
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.
