Towns in Shropshire
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 Shropshire address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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).

Covering Shropshire
Towns we cover in Shropshire include Telford, Shrewsbury, Wellington, Oswestry, Ludlow, Bridgnorth, Market Drayton. The West Midlands has a large stock of 1930s and post-war semi-detached houses, which are well suited to rear, side and over-garage extensions, plus Victorian terraces in the older inner areas.
Our process, step by step
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
We visit your Shropshire home, measure up, talk through what you want and check the planning position.
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
With the design and specification agreed, you get a fixed written price and a start date.
Build and sign-off
The build is managed from start to finish, inspected at each stage and signed off on completion.
Wraparound extension questions answered
Do I need building regulations approval in Shropshire?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
How long does a wraparound extension take to build in Shropshire?
On site, typically 14 to 20 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–16 weeks design and approvals.
Do you cover all of Shropshire?
Yes, across the whole of Shropshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
How much does a wraparound extension cost?
Our guide range is about £1,940 to £3,590 per m² including VAT. A 25 m² standard-spec wraparound typically lands around £55,500 to £70,500 in Shropshire before design and council fees.
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.
