Planning Permission & Building Regulations
A key area to any house extension project in Northampton is the planning and building control where our services include both of these areas in detail so that you may gain permission required of you to begin a build.
Planning itself isn’t generally required unless the extension is quite large or if you are in a conservation area due to the permitted development rights, in cases where it is required we will work with the local authority to allow you full planning approvals on your behalf, where we will continue to make any needed amendments needed to get you into the building stage.
We boast a high level of experience in building regulations drawings as well. You can be sure of our drawings including all required detail needed to gain building control approval. we will also liase with local authority building control for you at all steps of the process to gain access to full approvals where we will continue any required changes at no additional costs to ensure your project is seen to success.
The Approval Process
We have detailed understanding of the legal requirements that must be met before construction on your house can commence. The planning application extension plans are on a high level of detail where they have been thoroughly prepared to include all appropriate scales, site maps and all other components that are needed to have the application validated.
An extensive assessment of the designs ensure that compliance with the planning guide and regulations are met. Considerations are taken into a careful account on this assessment where we look into overdevelopment, impact on the street scene, right of light, overshadowing, loss of amenity and outlook, massing/dominance, loss of privacy, and other relevant considerations will be accounted for and mitigated or worked around all so that you can still maintain your original vision for the project.
