  • Do I need planning permission?
    To.....
  • How long will it take before I can start to build?
    We get asked this question a lot! For most domestic projects (extensions/alterations), we generally advise that it takes around 12 months from commencing the design work to starting the build, based on us providing a full service. However, this depends on a variety of factors including the availability of consultants and how long it takes the local authority to process and approve the planning and building warrant applications, all of which are out with our control. If your project is located in a Conservation Area, or if the existing property is listed, then the planning process could take longer.
