Covering Peterborough
Site visits are available across Peterborough (PE1, PE2, PE3, PE4, PE5, PE7). Neighbouring towns we cover include March (14 miles), Huntingdon (17 miles), Wisbech (18 miles), Ely (25 miles).
Across the East of England many houses sit on generous plots, and single-storey and wraparound extensions are a natural fit.
Planning and approvals in Peterborough
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.
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).
What is included
- Foundations, drainage and any manhole relocation
- Structural design for the corner and openings
- Party wall notice support (England and Wales)
- Full internal finish or kitchen-ready shell
- Roof with glazing along the side return
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.

Common questions in Peterborough
Who do I contract with for a wraparound extension in Peterborough?
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.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Peterborough, 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 Peterborough?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
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 £2,120 to £3,920 per m² including VAT. A 25 m² standard-spec wraparound typically lands around £60,500 to £77,000 in Peterborough before design and council fees.
