"A technical drawing which serves as a guide for construction"
Following planning approval, the technical design is prepared in order to achieve Building Regulation approval. This includes co-ordinating the architectural, structural and building services information into the design. Working drawings provide detailed specific information on relevant elements of the building fabric and are used by the contractor for the construction phase.
We are looking to submit a planning application to reconfigure our ageing detached 4 bed property with the possibility of extending into the loft space and constructing a rear extension. What is the best way to start this process?
We are interested in designing and building a new replacement house on an existing plot. Is traditional masonry still the way to go or should we consider alternative construction methods?
We've recently got planning permission for a 2 storey side extension and our builder has suggested that we can progress on a building notice to avoid more drawing costs. Can you offer advice on this?
