Planning and approvals in Neath
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.
The planning position for a specific Neath 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 before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).
Extensions in and around Neath
Across SA10, SA11, we can visit, measure and advise. Neighbouring towns we cover include Briton Ferry (2 miles), Clydach (4 miles), Swansea (7 miles), Gorseinon (10 miles).
Welsh housing ranges from stone terraces in the valleys to render-and-slate houses and modern estates, and the Welsh planning rules differ from England's in several places.
When a wraparound extension makes sense
- 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

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

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.
Will I need to move a drain?
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.
