What is a wraparound extension?
A wraparound extension combines a side return and a rear extension into one L-shaped addition. It gives the largest possible ground floor, often creating an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space across the whole width of the house.
How much does a wraparound extension cost in Staveley?
In Staveley, a wraparound extension typically costs £2,100–£3,050 per m² of floor area, including VAT at 20% (standard rate). For a typical 28 m² project that is roughly £59,000–£85,500. We start from a UK-wide guide and adjust it for the East Midlands, where labour and materials are typically about 5% below average. Design, structural calculations and council fees are extra.
| Size or type | Guide range |
|---|---|
| Smaller project (20 m²) | £42,000–£61,000 |

| Larger project (39 m²) | £82,000–£119,000 |

Your quote will depend mainly on:
- Kitchen and flooring specification
- Access for materials on terraced streets
- Total footprint and the amount of glazing
- Drainage changes
Your exact price depends on the survey and drawings. The guide price tool gives a quick range in the meantime.
Do you need planning permission for a wraparound extension in Staveley?
Before anything is built in Staveley, we confirm which approvals apply in England. In England a wraparound extension combines side and rear elements, which normally takes it outside permitted development, so a householder planning application is made.
Where work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 metres of a neighbour’s building and deeper than its foundations (or within 6 metres for deeper work), the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notices must be served before work starts.
Our first visit includes a check of your planning history, so you know the route before paying for drawings.
