Design stage and Planning

Site Survey: Our site survey is arranged to accommodate your schedule, and we're happy to arrange a visit at a time that's convenient for you. During this stage, our architect, who is qualified by RIBA, will assess the property and gather an initial brief from you about your goals for the project. This visit is designed to be flexible to ensure that it fits in with your availability.Design: Our team of designers will commence work on your preliminary draft designs, incorporating both current and proposed floor plans and elevations. The design phase may take up to 7 business days, during which you have the freedom to make as many adjustments and modifications to the designs as you desire until you are fully satisfied. Additionally, we can supply you with 3D visual representations to help you envision the final outcome.Planning application: We will handle the preparation and submission of your planning application for either permission or permitted development and manage all interactions with the council during the 8-week decision period.

    Quote: One of our estimators will generate a quotation using a schedule of works that is based on the design specifications you have requested. You will have the opportunity to review and discuss any items in the quote in order to achieve your desired budget.Party Wall: We recommend that you arrange for this task to be completed promptly upon receiving planning permission. Since an unbiased surveyor is required, we can only suggest surveyors we frequently collaborate with. It may be worthwhile to speak with your neighbours prior to beginning the design process to determine their response to the proposed construction.Programme: After you have approved the quotation, we can commence the creation of a building schedule that will incorporate a timeline for the entire project, along with crucial delivery dates for significant items such as the kitchen and glazing.Contract and Deposit: Prior to the commencement of the project, we will draft a contract that adheres to industry standards and contains provisions to safeguard both you as the client and us as the contractor. In conjunction with the contract, we will request a 5% deposit to confirm a start date for our construction team.
