Planning An Extension Glasgow

a extensionsAre you planning an extension for your home in Glasgow? An extension is considered to be permitted development, meaning that it doesn’t require planning permission; provided that it’s within a specific criteria.

Although planning permission isn’t required, most extensions require approval under the Building Regulations. That’s where we come in.

Here at Archi Plan Glasgow, we can help when planning an extension. We are able to help you by offering a local, professional service which will in turn save you hundreds of pounds.

We are able to offer you plans that you can use when you are applying for a building warrant. Our service involves:

  • A full site measurement survey being carried out
  • Preparing existing floor and elevation plans
  • Preparing proposed floor and elevation plans
  • Completing all application forms
  • Liaising with the local council throughout your application
  • Acting as your agent, meaning that you don’t have to speak to your local council
  • Recommending structural engineers if they are required

.

The benefit of using us when planning an extension is that we are able to review your builders’ quotes for the new building works and offer advice as well as explain the terminology that is used on the quotes before any work is required. This is beneficial as it means that you’ll fully understand what your builder has priced you for and it’ll also make sure that the builders have digested our drawings correctly. This part of our service is completely free as we have a high focus on achieving 100% customer satisfaction.

Our team are able to recommend an approved builder to carry out the work if you require us to do so. This will ensure that the builder(s) you are hiring are highly skilled and experienced in building house extensions.

Here at Archi Plan Glasgow, we promote a fixed fee, with us offering good value for money without there being any hidden costs. The only costs that are ever above our fixed fee is what you have to pay the council – this is known as the application fee which can be found on your local council’s website along with any structural engineering reports that you may need if there are any major structural alterations taking place.

If you are planning an extension then get in touch with us today to discuss what we can offer. Simply give us a call on 0800 520 0347 or email us at: admin@archiplanglasgow.com.
