Wrap-around extensions for maximum transformation

A wrap-around extension combines a rear extension with a side return to dramatically improve ground-floor space. It’s ideal for creating large kitchen-diners, family zones and better circulation—especially in homes where the existing layout feels narrow or chopped up.

Because the scope is larger, we pay extra attention to design coherence, structure, drainage and daylight. Done well, the result feels like a new home—while keeping the character of the original building.

We coordinate planning permission, Building Regulations and (where relevant) party wall steps. If you are exploring your options, you can request a fixed-price quotation or browse recent work in our projects gallery.

What makes a wrap-around work

The best results come from balancing ambition with proportion and buildability.

  • A daylight plan: rooflights/lanterns and glazing to avoid dark zones.
  • Thoughtful zoning for cooking, dining, relaxing and storage.
  • Structural planning for wide openings and open-plan spans.
  • Drainage strategy for side access and existing runs.
  • External detailing that ties in materials, rooflines and gutters.

From survey to handover

We begin with feasibility and concept design, then refine the scheme around budget and approvals. Once confirmed, we deliver a managed build with clear staging and regular updates.

If you’re also considering a whole-home refresh, wrap-arounds pair well with renovation and reconfiguration projects.

We work across East Molesey, West Molesey, Hampton Court, Kingston upon Thames, Esher, Surbiton, Elmbridge and surrounding Surrey & South West London.

Why homeowners choose wrap-arounds

  • Creates the biggest ground-floor change in one project.
  • Improves width and depth—ideal for modern open-plan living.
  • Allows generous glazing and a strong garden connection.
  • Often delivers excellent long-term value and enjoyment.
