Clear guidance to help you move your project forward

Once you have chosen a design to develop, we guide you through the permissions and technical steps that help your project progress smoothly. We explain everything in plain language so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

Simply contact us now and we will be happy to explain what we do.

Planning Applications and Certificates of Lawful Development

Not every project needs planning permission. Some changes fall under permitted development. We help you understand what applies to your home and prepare the drawings you need.

We can support you with:

planning applications
certificates of lawful development
design statements
liaison with the local planning authority
responding to planning queries

Our role is to make the process clear and predictable so you know what to expect.

Building Regulations

Building Regulations cover safety, structure, drainage, insulation and energy performance. If your project needs Building Regulations approval, we prepare the technical drawings and coordinate with the professionals involved.

We can help you with:

detailed Building Regulations drawings
liaising with your structural engineer
liaising with your building inspector
SAP and energy calculations when required
drainage and foundation requirements

We explain what you need and why, without overwhelming you with technical detail.

Principal Designer and CDM Duties

Every project needs a Principal Designer under the Construction Design and Management Regulations. This role focuses on health and safety during the design stage and ensures your project is compliant before work begins.

We take on this role and provide:

a pre construction health and safety plan
coordination of essential information for your builder
final sign off at the end of the design stage

This gives you peace of mind that everything is safe, compliant and ready for construction.

Your Next Steps

Once planning and Building Regulations are in place, we help you prepare for the build. This can include tender drawings, support when choosing a builder and pre-start checks so you feel ready for work to begin.
