In Scotland many families extend bungalows and semis, while tenement flats bring shared ownership of roofs and walls that needs agreeing early.
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.
- Building warrant application and completion certificate
- Heating, hot water and electrics
- Accessible design options for older relatives

What approvals does a garden annexe need in Scotland?
Scottish projects follow a different process from England: the council issues a building warrant before work starts and accepts a completion certificate at the end, alongside any planning permission needed. We prepare both applications.
In Scotland an annexe needs planning permission and a building warrant before work starts.
What can affect a garden annexe?
- The annexe normally has to remain part of the main household, not let as a separate home.
- A level threshold and wider doors make the annexe suitable for later life.
