Residential Extensions
We design and deliver bespoke residential extensions that enhance living spaces while maintaining architectural harmony. Our process begins with understanding client needs, followed by creating functional layouts and detailed construction drawings. With expertise in local planning regulations, we ensure seamless approvals and oversee project execution to guarantee quality outcomes.
New Build Properties
From concept to completion, we specialise in creating unique new build properties tailored to client specifications. Our services include site analysis, architectural design, planning applications, and construction management. We focus on sustainable materials and energy-efficient systems to deliver modern, environmentally conscious homes that meet technical and aesthetic requirements.
Planning Applications
Our team navigates the complexities of planning applications with a 97% success rate. We prepare comprehensive documentation, liaise with local authorities, and address neighbour consultations to secure approvals. With in-depth knowledge of Surrey's planning policies, we streamline the process to ensure timely project commencement while maintaining compliance with regulatory standards.
Construction Detailing
We produce precise construction detailing to guide builders through every project phase. Our technical drawings include structural specifications, material selections, and junction details to eliminate ambiguities. This meticulous approach ensures accurate implementation of designs, minimising delays and maintaining the integrity of the original vision throughout the building process.
Development Packs
For large-scale developments, we create comprehensive development packs integrating designs from multiple consultants. These packages include coordinated technical drawings, compliance documentation, and tender materials.
