Do I need planning permission in Tyldesley?
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).
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
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).

Build and sign-off
The build is managed from start to finish, inspected at each stage and signed off on completion.
Your questions about a wraparound extension in Tyldesley
How long does a wraparound extension take to build in Tyldesley?
On site, typically 14 to 20 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 8–16 weeks design and approvals.
Will my neighbours in Tyldesley be involved?
If a planning application or prior approval is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Tyldesley, 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.
How much does a wraparound extension cost?
Our guide range is about £1,900 to £3,520 per m² including VAT. A 25 m² standard-spec wraparound typically lands around £54,500 to £69,000 in Tyldesley before design and council fees.
