Local to Melton Mowbray
Postcode districts we cover around Melton Mowbray include LE13, LE14. Nearby, we also take on projects in Loughborough (13 miles), Leicester (14 miles), Oadby (14 miles), Wigston (15 miles).
For homes towards Rutland, Oakham is around 11 miles away. Homes across the East Midlands often have usable side land or a driveway beside the house, which opens up side and wraparound options.
Do I need planning permission in Melton Mowbray?
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.
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).

Your questions about a wraparound extension in Melton Mowbray
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Melton Mowbray, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

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 long does a wraparound extension take to build in Melton Mowbray?
On site, typically 14 to 20 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–16 weeks design and approvals.
How much does a wraparound extension cost?

Often. Side returns frequently contain a manhole or a shared drain. Building near or over a public sewer needs the water company’s consent in England and Wales, which we arrange.
