Services
Building Surveys
We conduct detailed building surveys to assess existing structures and inform design decisions. Our surveys include precise measurements, condition analysis, and recommendations for modifications or extensions. This foundational work ensures all subsequent plans align with the property's physical realities and regulatory requirements.
Planning Applications
Our team prepares and submits comprehensive planning applications, including site plans and design statements. We engage with local authorities early to address potential issues, improving approval chances. This service covers both domestic extensions under permitted development and complex commercial developments requiring formal consent.
Tender Drawings
We produce detailed tender drawings that enable accurate contractor pricing. These drawings specify construction methods, materials, and technical requirements. Our documentation ensures builders have all necessary information to provide competitive quotes and execute projects according to approved designs.
Site Supervision
Our site supervision service ensures construction aligns with approved plans. We conduct regular inspections to verify workmanship quality and compliance with building regulations. This proactive oversight helps prevent costly errors and ensures the final structure matches design specifications.
3D Renders
We create photorealistic 3D renders to visualise proposed developments. These visualisations aid planning applications by demonstrating design intent to authorities and stakeholders. For commercial projects, they serve as valuable marketing tools to showcase properties before construction begins.
