Will the council need to approve it?
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).
The planning position for a specific Salford 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, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.
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).
Working in Salford
Postcode districts we cover around Salford include M2, M3, M5, M6, M7, M17. Neighbouring towns we cover include Eccles (2 miles), Manchester (2 miles), Swinton (3 miles), Stretford (3 miles).
Wilmslow, in Cheshire, is roughly 11 miles from Salford and also on our list. The North West has a high share of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with rear yards and outriggers, plus large areas of inter-war semis in the suburbs.
What we take care of
- Foundations, drainage and any manhole relocation
- Structural design for the corner and openings
- Survey, design and 3D layout options
- Roof with glazing along the side return
- Party wall notice support (England and Wales)
- Full internal finish or kitchen-ready shell
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.
From first visit to completion
Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

Design and approvals
Drawings are prepared and agreed with you, then submitted for the right planning route and building regulations approval.
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
Work is carried out to the agreed programme, inspected by building control and signed off at the end.
Your questions about a wraparound extension in Salford
Who do I contract with for a wraparound extension in Salford?
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.
Do I need building regulations approval in Salford?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Salford, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Is a wraparound better than a side return alone?
It adds far more space, but costs more and needs planning permission more often. Our comparison guide sets the two side by side.
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.
