Covering Market Drayton
We work in Market Drayton (TF9) and the places around it, including Whitchurch, Newcastle-under-Lyme and Crewe.
Homes in the West Midlands
Red-brick terraces and inter-war semis make up much of the housing in the West Midlands, which suits rear extensions, dormer lofts and hip-to-gable conversions, with more modern estates on the edges of the towns.
What does a garden annexe involve?
We design annexes as permanent buildings with proper foundations, insulation and services, and we prepare the planning case showing how the annexe will be used as part of the main home. Connections for water, drainage and power are planned from the start.
- Foundations and drainage connections
- Heating, hot water and electrics
- Accessible design options for older relatives

Do you need permission for a garden annexe in Market Drayton?
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
A self-contained annexe used for sleeping and living normally needs planning permission in England.
What can affect a garden annexe?
- The annexe normally has to remain part of the main household, not let as a separate home.
- Council tax treatment depends on who lives there; check with your council.

Questions about a garden annexe in Market Drayton
Can I rent the annexe out?
Usually not without a separate planning permission, because councils normally require it to stay part of the main house.
Can you make it wheelchair accessible?
Yes. Level access, wider doors and a level-access shower can be designed in from the start.
Can you visit a house in Market Drayton to quote?
Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
