What It Involves
Planning and Design Support for Every Residential Project Type
We work with homeowners at every stage of the residential planning and design process - from confirming whether you need planning permission through to producing the drawings and managing the application.
Our residential experience covers single and double storey extensions, loft conversions, garage conversions, outbuilding erections, new build dwellings, and full property refurbishments.
Every project starts with an honest feasibility assessment. We tell you what is achievable, what it will cost, and how long it will take - before any fee is agreed.

Homeowners wanting to extend, convert or improve their property
✓
Homeowners building a new dwelling on their own plot

Common Questions
Frequently asked questions about our Residential Design & Planning service.
Do I need planning permission for a house extension?
Many extensions fall within permitted development rights and do not require a planning application. We confirm whether PD applies to your property and, if not, manage the full planning application.
How much does residential planning support cost?
Our fees depend on the project type and complexity. We provide a fixed-price quotation before any work begins, so you know exactly what you are paying.
