New Dwellings

Contrary to the government saying that they are making it easier to build new homes this can vary often not be the case. Planning rules on where and what you can build together with biodiversity and drainage regulations this is becoming a collective of specialist reports in some instances. Therefore, I sometimes work with a planning consultant and other eco specialists depending on the situation with the site. Sometimes it is best to handover to a planning consultant to deal with the Planning system. 

With the ever changing building regulations it is always good to ensure your new dwelling is designed correctly and with up to date building regulations in mind, so you are not going back to planning for changes. We can offer a well designed scheme based on tried and tested building practices.

There is a minefield of things to consider ground conditions, existing services, planning restrictions such as heights, styles, access to the site, orientation with overheating regulations, thermal insulation, eco surveys  etc.

Whilst we can deal with most things for building control we are not affiliated to a professional body. Therefore, cannot offer an inspection service for your mortgage company. We can recommend other professionals for this or more usually advise the customer obtains a building warranty such as the LABC warranty.
