Planning and building rules in Crewe

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.

This needs full planning permission from the council.

What can affect a new-build home?

  • Most lenders want a structural warranty or architect’s certificate on a new home.
  • Planning conditions often need discharging before work starts.

How does the project run?

  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. Site visit. We walk the plot or existing house, look at access, levels, services and boundaries, and talk through what could be built.
  3. Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
  4. Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
