Services
For over 30 years we have provided a planning and structural engineering service to be both private and sector in all aspects of the construction industry. Anything from a small front porch to a private house to a small office block, block of apartments, or a retaining wall for a basement construction is designed by us.
As structural engineers we can provide an additional service for those that need it. It also means we can provide a package for those who wish to extend/convert and structural details and calculations are involved, rather than have a set of plans designed by one person and then have to approach another for the structural aspect of the project.
The majority of projects are based on a fixed fee to visit the site for a survey, discuss the project with you and send your plans and details through the post. After a telephone discussion we ought to be able to explain what you are likely to get with and without planning permission. If we are unable to do this then a site visit can be arranged.
Not all extensions and conversions require a planning application. If you need further clarification please do not hesitate to contact us. A planning application is not required in each and every case. To determine if a residential extension requires a planning application or not certain criteria needs to be met and this criteria is normally on each Councils website or located on the Governments planning portal.
Until you have the full facts it is sometimes difficult to know whether or not to proceed. Therefore feel free to call for advice on any matter and we will try to help you. Most councils have their own set of guidelines that can be viewed on line that will give you some idea of how far you can extend your property.
