Process

DEVELOPMENTS
Small scale developments can be the perfect way to extract every bit of potential out of a site, with an ever-present demand for housing within and around the city this is becoming a key fundamental consideration in any new development project. Having experience in these matters is absolutely key to ensure that the determination and approvals stage is as smoothly run as possible.

MEASURED BUILDING SURVEYS
A complete and thorough measured building survey will be required before a project can really get started. The existing drawings will provide us with a base from which we can start to flesh out the design to suit your bespoke project brief. For larger more complex projects we have professionals that we can recommend in assisting us with this stage.

CONSERVATION AREAS & LISTED BUILDINGS
A listed building or one within a conservation area will undergo an additional level of scrutiny during the determination period and rightly so. These properties or areas will have an architectural character or features that is encouraged to be preserved, having an in depth understanding of these guidelines and appraisals is key to a successful project, our experience lends us perfectly to guiding you through the process.

BASEMENTS
A basement project is by default no small undertaking, the very nature of these projects means we have numerous factors to consider, especially those pertaining to construction and structural design, we have contacts to ensure these issues are dealt with pro-actively.. A basement can offer all the advantages that a loft conversion can but usually without the reduced head height playing a restricting factor.

OUTBUILDINGS
Outbuildings have gone from strength to strength in terms of their feasibility and popularity. The ever-shifting priorities of homeowners has meant that we are seeing more and more outbuildings than before. The potential for a high level of design flexibility means that an outbuilding is an investment that will continue to give back now and in the future.

LOFT CONVERSIONS
One of the most common project types that we are involved with is also one of the most beneficial for your clients. Lofts are usually used for overflow storage of stuff you know you should throw out; they are also almost the same size of the floor below showing potential that is there to be used. With the option to use formal planning permission or permitted development rights there is plenty of scope to use the space exactly how you wish.

INTERNAL ALTERATIONS
Internal alterations can offer you the perfect balance in updating your home without the need for costly larger scale building works. A simple yet effective re-model of your internal layout can create the feeling of a whole new home with the added benefit of making more efficient use of the space, re-purposing defunct spaces and updating it to be fit for more modern-day use.

DOMESTIC EXTENSIONS
An extension is the perfect way to both re-fresh and add value to your home without the potential stress of demolishing large parts of your home, there is also the added potential benefit of utilising permitted development rights making the process much simpler. A single or double-storey extension could be the perfect way to add the space your home craves; we have handled countless projects of this type and would be delighted to assist you.

NEW BUILDS
A new build home is the perfect way to guarantee that you are maximising the potential of your site. Whether you have a large plot of land that you want to split up and build upon, an empty site begging to be developed or a property you’d like to demolish and re-build, our experience ensures we are able to guide you through to a successful and satisfying project end.
