Wraparound Extension in Stratford
Project Overview
This major transformation combined rear and side expansion to create a modern, open-plan layout. The focus was on architectural flow and achieving a high-end, cohesive family living environment.
The Challenge
The existing home was segmented and disconnected. The layout made it difficult to move between rooms, and the property lacked the open-plan social space required for modern life.
The Solution
MBT Group delivered a comprehensive wraparound extension that dramatically increased the property’s square footage. By integrating structural reinforcements, we were able to remove internal walls and create a massive, light-filled, open-plan hub.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a house extension cost in London?
The cost depends on the size of the extension, specification, structure, access, finishes and whether planning or structural work is required. After a site visit, MBT Group can provide a clearer quotation based on the property and the work involved
Do I need planning permission for a house extension?
Some house extensions can be carried out under permitted development rights, while others need planning permission. This depends on the size, location, property type and previous extensions. MBT Group can help guide you on the likely route before work begins.
Can I live in my home during the extension?
In many cases, yes. It depends on the scale of the work, whether services are being disrupted and how much of the property is affected. We will discuss this during the planning stage so expectations are clear
How long does a house extension take?
A typical single storey extension may take several months depending on size, complexity, approvals, weather, access and finishes. Larger wraparound or double storey extensions can take longer
Does MBT Group handle the full project?
MBT Group can support the process from early consultation through to construction and completion, including coordination with designers, structural input and relevant trades
