What do you get with a garden annexe?

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.

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.

In Scotland an annexe needs planning permission and a building warrant before work starts.

What can affect a garden annexe?

  • Drainage may need a pump if the garden falls away from the sewer.
  • A level threshold and wider doors make the annexe suitable for later life.

What are the steps?

  1. Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
  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. Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.

Can I rent the annexe out?

Yes. Level access, wider doors and a level-access shower can be designed in from the start.

Who deals with the council for a project in Pitlochry?

We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
