Churchill Design

Churchill Design's main aim is to guide you through all of the intricate procedures associated with the design, planning and construction of your building project. We pride ourselves in listening to you and designing around your requirements. We are very familiar with the policy requirements that the Local Authorities base their decisions on and we design within the parameters and constraints encompassed by these guidelines.

New house construction will always require a planning consent; however, a formal planning consent is not always needed for you to be able to alter or extend your home. There is an amount of work that you can do to your home under Permitted Development. Whilst you do not need to approach the Local Authority for work in this category you may decide to formalise the work using a Certificate of Lawfulness.

Building Regulations approval is a formality and just requires plans to be submitted that accord with the current requirements as laid down in the Approved Documents. It is our responsibility to ensure that the information provided in the way of drawings, specifications and supporting documentation is accurate and up to date.

Working with design in the construction industry for some years now, in particular in the domestic market place it is clear that there are a number of our clients who opt to work from home, either full time as a business or part time in association with their employment.

We have experienced through them the difficulties of combining home life and working under the same roof, especially where young children are involved and particularly with frequent school holidays and the resultant increase in background noise levels.However, there are many advantages to working from home within a proper disciplined atmosphere where you can concentrate and carry out your work in a professional manner without these disturbances.

We offer a free initial consultation at your home or at our offices whereby we will discuss your requirements with you in detail and assess the level of service that you will require. At that visit we can usually provide you with a written quotation or estimate for our services and we can also advise you on the likely construction costs for your project.
