What does architectural design and planning involve?

  • Measured survey of the existing house
  • Design options and 3D views

Do you need permission for architectural design and planning in Hucknall?

Projects in England go through two separate checks. Planning (or confirmation that the work is permitted development) comes from the district, borough or unitary council, and building regulations approval comes from the council’s building control team or a registered building control approver. Where work touches a shared wall or digs near a neighbour’s foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies.

We confirm whether your project is permitted development, needs prior approval or needs a householder application, and prepare the right submission.

What can change the price or programme?

  • Planning and building regulations are separate approvals; most projects need building regulations even when planning is not needed.
  • Pre-application advice from the council can help on sensitive sites.

From first call to completion

  1. Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
  2. Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
  3. Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
  4. Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
