Towns in Powys
What is included
- Roof with glazing along the side return
- Householder planning application
- Full internal finish or kitchen-ready shell
- Foundations, drainage and any manhole relocation
- Party wall notice support (England and Wales)
- Structural design for the corner and openings
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.
Planning rules that apply in Powys
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 Powys 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).
Covering Powys
Towns we cover in Powys include Newtown, Welshpool, Brecon, Llandrindod Wells. 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.

How the project works
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
A designer visits, takes measurements and photos, and discusses layouts, budget and timing with you.
Design and approvals
Once the layout is agreed, we deal with the council: planning permission or written confirmation that none is needed, plus building control.
Fixed written price
We confirm the build price in writing, based on the approved drawings and the finishes you have chosen.
Build and sign-off
Our team builds the extension, keeps you updated weekly and finishes with building control sign-off.
Questions people ask about wraparound extensions
Will my neighbours in Powys 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 Powys?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Do you cover all of Powys?
Yes, across the whole of Powys. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
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.
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 Powys before design and council fees.
