Planning and approvals in Maesteg
In Wales a wraparound must satisfy both the rear and side extension limits to be permitted development, so most need a planning application to the council.
Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (AONBs) 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 before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).
What happens next
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
Drawings are prepared and agreed with you, then submitted for the right planning route and building regulations approval.
Fixed written price
With the design and specification agreed, you get a fixed written price and a start date.
Build and sign-off
Work is carried out to the agreed programme, inspected by building control and signed off at the end.
Your questions about a wraparound extension in Maesteg
Do you cover all of Maesteg?
Yes. We cover Maesteg and the surrounding parts of Mid Glamorgan. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Will my neighbours in Maesteg be involved?
If a planning application 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 Maesteg?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
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.
How much does a wraparound extension cost?
Our guide range is about £1,860 to £3,440 per m² including VAT. A 25 m² standard-spec wraparound typically lands around £53,000 to £67,500 in Maesteg before design and council fees.
