What is included in a new-build home in Fraserburgh?

We can take a plot from feasibility through planning, detailed design, building regulations, construction and handover, or build to a design and planning permission you already have. The structure can be traditional masonry or timber frame, and we work to the energy and ventilation rules that apply to new homes in each nation.

Do you need permission for a new-build home in Fraserburgh?

Projects in Scotland need a building warrant from the council before any building work starts, and a completion certificate once it is finished. Planning permission is a separate decision. The Party Wall etc. Act does not apply in Scotland; shared walls are governed by title deeds and the law of the tenement where relevant.

This needs planning permission and a building warrant from your council in Scotland before work starts.

What should Fraserburgh homeowners check first?

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