Letter Of Comfort Glasgow

a archiplan 4A letter of comfort is a letter from Glasgow City Council that states that action won’t be taken in regards of specified works that have either:

  • Been started without the required building warrant being obtained
  • Been carried out with a building warrant but there was no certificate of completion obtained before the warrant expired

.

A letter of comfort will only be issued to you after there has been a satisfactory inspection carried out.

Generally people in Glasgow who are selling their homes may be asked to get a letter of comfort, this is because the bank the potential buyer is using will want to make sure that the structure and integrity of the property is in a good working order.

Here at Archi Plan Glasgow we specialise in providing drawings that are used for a letter of comfort. We have been offering this service to homeowners for several years now and have built up an excellent reputation due to the quality of our service.

Our process starts with us coming out to your home to carry out a full measurement survey. At this point you’ll be given a free quote for the service and if you are happy to go ahead then we can arrange to get started on the work.

You’ll then be able to use the drawing(s) and fill out the application and it can be sent away to the council where they will make a decision as to whether or not they are going to approve the work.

If you’d like more information about a letter of comfort or you would like us to take on the drawings on your behalf then get in touch with us today. You can either give us a call on 0800 520 0347 or you can email us at: admin@archiplanglasgow.co.uk.

 

Late Building Warrant Glasgow

Have you carried out any alterations to your home in Glasgow? You may well be in the position where you are selling your home now or in the future and need a late building warrant.

A late building warrant, otherwise known as a letter of comfort is required where there has been work started without the required consent.

In the time that we have been established as a business we have seen that there are more and more people in Glasgow who are having building works carried out to their property without even knowing that they needed a building warrant at the time that they were having the work carried out.

If you choose to come to us for a late building warrant then we will have to come out to your home in Glasgow to carry out a full measurement survey. At this stage we may highlight any areas of concern that we feel need attended to, preventing any delays with the release of the completion certificate.

With the information that we gather we will produce a set of existing scale drawings and a full set of proposed scale drawings. This will then be accompanied with the ordnance survey map that highlights your property and completed application form where it will be submitted for review.

Once submitted, it can take around 4 weeks for the council to review the plans and arrange for there to be a site inspection, this is followed by the release of the completion certificate. We will be in contact with you throughout the entire process of your application.

If you would like more information about our service then contact us today. You can give us a call on 0800 520 0347 or you can send us an email at: admin@archiplanglasgow.com.

 

Retrospective Permission Glasgow

a archiplan 3Planning Permission & Retrospective Planning

As you may know, planning permission is the legal process that is followed in order to decide whether proposed developments should be allowed to be started.

You will have to get planning permission before any work is started. Retrospective planning can be put in place if the required permission is not sought before work begins. It is then that the planning authority in Glasgow will decide whether or not to grant it.

Archi Plan Glasgow

At Archi Plan Glasgow we have years of experience in providing drawings for retrospective planning permission applications.

In the time that we’ve been specialising in drawings we have learned that CAD facilities are the best one to use. This is what we use as it allows us to offer high-quality drawings that can be used for retrospective planning permission applications.

We charge competitive prices for our drawings and often have people telling us that our service is very good value for money.

When you contact us about this service we will arrange to come out to your home in Glasgow, this is so that we can tell you more about the drawings, give you a free quote and answer any questions that you might have.

If you want to go ahead then we will get started on producing the drawings, taking into account your requirements whilst doing so.

Retrospective Planning Glasgow

a archiplan 3If you fail to obtain planning permission or comply with the details of a permission then it’s known as a planning breach.

Typically a planning breach occurs when:

  • A development that requires planning permission has been undertaken without the permission being granted. This could be because the planning application was either refused or wasn’t even applied for
  • A development that has been given permission subject to conditions and breaks one or more of these conditions

.

A planning breach isn’t illegal and it’s quite often that the council will permit a retrospective application in cases where planning permission hasn’t been applied for at that time.

Having said this, if the breach involves a previously rejected development or the retrospective planning application is failed the council can issue an enforcement notice which means that you will have to put things back to the way that they were.

If the local planning authority in Glasgow serve an enforcement notice on you then it’s more than likely that they will consider that you’ve broken planning control rules, this is because they have considered that what you are doing or have done is damaging to your neighbourhood.

It is illegal for you to disobey an enforcement notice unless it’s appealed against. You can appeal against both the refusals of permission and enforcement notices but if the verdict does come out against you and you are still refusing to comply then you may be prosecuted.

Here at Archi Plan Glasgow we specialise in retrospective planning and can take care of the drawing work involved in the application process.

We have been dealing with retrospective planning for many years and have a wealth of experience along with all of the knowledge that’s required to offer a first-class service.

We pride ourselves on charging competitive prices for this service. When you get in touch with us about retrospective planning we will arrange to come out to your home in Glasgow, this is so that we can tell you more about this service, give you a free quote and answer any questions that you may have.
