Planning and approvals in New Malden
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).
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
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.
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).
What is included
- Householder planning application
- Survey, design and 3D layout options
- Structural design for the corner and openings
- Foundations, drainage and any manhole relocation
- Roof with glazing along the side return
- Party wall notice support (England and Wales)
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.

For homes towards Surrey, Ewell is around 4 miles away. Across London, terraced houses with narrow side returns and tight access are the norm, which shapes everything from party wall notices to how materials reach the back garden.

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 New Malden, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
How long does a wraparound extension take to build in New Malden?
On site, typically 14 to 20 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–16 weeks design and approvals.
Will my neighbours in New Malden 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 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.
How much does a wraparound extension cost?
Our guide range is about £2,600 to £4,810 per m² including VAT. A 25 m² standard-spec wraparound typically lands around £74,500 to £94,500 in New Malden before design and council fees.
