If you’re thinking of extending or improving your home and don’t know where to start, there are plenty of websites to give you some useful background information. The most definitive is at www.planningportal.gov.uk although your local authority will be more than happy to give advice.

Seeking Planning Permission and Building Regulation approval for most projects is not rocket science. It’s a journey from concept to completion that has to carefully negotiate the requirements of the local authority Planning and Building Regulation departments.

We are fully conversant with local authority procedures associated with extensions, alterations, conversions and other physical improvements. We take your ideas, turn them into proposal drawings and make the necessary submissions for approval by the council. All surveys, proposal designs and structural calculations are carried out in-house to ensure that overall control is maintained.
