House extension drawings

IF you are looking to extend your home you will need drawings for planning permission to check and approve. You may not know this however your drawings do not need to be completed by an architect. It is a common misconception that an architect is always needed for planning permission drawings.

Drawings will need to be technically accurate and will be needed for structural drawings to be created from however with our drawing service it is possible to get your home through the planning process without the need to employ an expensive architect.

If you have a house extension in mind we can help. We will draw the existing and the proposed layout and submit this through the planning application on your behalf. We can also advise on the likely outcome of planning if you were to submit drawings. We have experience in knowing what the council look for so can point you in the right direction, potentially saving you from wasting valuable time or taking advantage of an opportunity you might have otherwise missed.

Our house extension drawings are completed in a 2d format, keeping it simple. In our opinion less detail means the planning officer will be less likely to stipulate a finish if undefined. For example if you define cladding or a colour on the drawing when submitted then it will be harder to change this further along the process.

We will submit your drawings with the minimum detail so that it gives you flexibility to ‘tweak’ your finishes as you go. This will give you more freedom and flexibility in the longer term.

Once approved your drawings can then be completed in a structural format for us or your chosen builder to start your build.

If you are looking to get plans done we can also advise on the likely building cost. Our team are experienced in all areas of build, so by speaking to us in advance we can guide you through the process in a way that avoids any pitfalls with your house extension drawings. We will advise if you are plotting too close to a boundary, or will need to install fire rated windows etc, which will otherwise push the cost of the extension up.

House extension drawings can be completed relatively quickly, so drop us an email or give us a call as we will either arrange a visit or give you a call to discuss your project in more detail.
