Frequently Asked Questions

What is a wraparound extension?

A wraparound extension combines a rear extension with a side return extension, creating an L-shaped addition that wraps around the corner of your property. This maximises ground floor space and is particularly effective for semi-detached and terraced properties in Edinburgh, creating large open-plan living areas.

How much does a wraparound extension cost in Edinburgh?

Wraparound extension costs in Edinburgh typically range from £1,600 to £2,600 per square metre. A typical 30-40m² wraparound extension would cost between £48,000 and £104,000, depending on specification, finishes, and structural requirements. We provide detailed, itemised quotes with transparent pricing.

Do I need planning permission for a wraparound extension?

Planning permission requirements depend on the extension's size, height, and your property's location. Many wraparound extensions fall under permitted development, but conservation areas, listed buildings, and properties with restrictive covenants require planning approval. We assess your property and handle all planning applications.

How long does it take to build a wraparound extension?

A typical wraparound extension takes 14-20 weeks from start to completion, including groundworks, construction, roofing, and internal finishing. Timeline depends on extension size, complexity, weather conditions, and whether planning permission is required. We provide realistic schedules with clear milestones.

Can a wraparound extension be single or double storey?

Yes, wraparound extensions can be either single or double storey. Single storey wraparounds are more common and often fall under permitted development. Double storey wraparounds provide maximum space but typically require planning permission. We design solutions that maximise space while meeting planning requirements.

Will a wraparound extension add value to my Edinburgh property?

A well-designed wraparound extension typically adds 15-20% to property value in Edinburgh, often exceeding construction costs. The large open-plan living space created is highly desirable. Extensions that maximise natural light, create seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and use quality finishes provide the best return on investment.
