Builders in the Scottish Borders: Extensions & Lofts

What kind of homes are in the Scottish Borders?

Scottish homes range from city tenements and sandstone terraces to bungalows and modern estates, and the building warrant process shapes the programme for every project.

Projects in the Scottish Borders are taken on by arrangement, and any travel and accommodation costs for the team are shown openly in the quote.

How are projects approved in the Scottish Borders?

In Scotland the key step is the building warrant, which must be granted before work begins. Planning permission is decided separately by the council, and work on shared walls is handled under your title deeds rather than a party wall act.

Use the guide price tool or the form, or call 0800 088 6341. We then arrange a free site visit to look at the house and talk through options.

Do you handle the council paperwork in the Scottish Borders?

Yes. We prepare drawings, deal with planning or permitted development, apply for building control approval (a building warrant in Scotland).

Can I live at home during a project?

For most extensions and loft conversions, yes. For whole-house renovations and rebuilds, most people move out for part of the work.
