Do I need planning permission in Stoke-on-Trent?
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).

Across ST1, ST2, ST3, ST4, ST5, ST6, we can visit, measure and advise. Nearby, we also take on projects in Newcastle-under-Lyme (2 miles), Longton (3 miles), Kidsgrove (6 miles), Leek (10 miles).
Just over the Cheshire border, Congleton is about 11 miles away. Across the West Midlands, brick-built semis with long gardens are common, so single-storey and two-storey rear extensions are popular choices.

Questions people ask about wraparound extensions
Do I need building regulations approval in Stoke-on-Trent?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
Who do I contract with for a wraparound extension in Stoke-on-Trent?
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.

Yes. We cover Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding parts of Staffordshire. 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 Stoke-on-Trent before design and council fees.
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.
