How it works
A process designed to remove the guesswork.
Five clear stages, each with a defined outcome, so you always know what is happening, what it costs and what comes next.
The process
From first conversation to first brick.
Most homeowners come to us knowing roughly what they want and very little about how to get it. That is entirely normal — this is the part we handle.
- 01
Free 30-minute consultation
A relaxed conversation about your property, your ideas and your budget — with honest guidance on what is realistic.
We talk through the property, what you want to achieve and what you want to spend. You will leave with a view on the likely planning route, a rough timeline and clear next steps. No obligation and no pressure.
- 02
Understanding your project
We survey the property, confirm the constraints and agree a brief that reflects how you actually want to live.
A measured survey gives us an accurate base. We check permitted development rights, conservation status, boundary and drainage issues, and set a brief that balances ambition with what the site and budget will carry.
- 03
Design & planning
Concept design, revisions with you, then a complete application prepared and submitted to your borough.
We develop the layout with you across several revisions, then prepare the drawings, statements and documents your council requires. We submit on your behalf and handle officer correspondence through to decision.
- 04
Technical drawings & professional team
Building regulations drawings, structural input and introductions to builders used to pricing from a full package.
Once approved, we produce the technical package needed to build and to satisfy building control, coordinate structural calculations, and can introduce you to trusted builders and structural engineers.
- 05
Moving towards construction
Tender support, contractor comparison and a clear handover so you start on site with confidence.
We help you compare quotes on a like-for-like basis, flag anything that looks under-priced, and make sure the builder you appoint has everything they need before the first brick is lifted.
What to expect
The first call is a conversation, not a sales pitch.
You tell us about the property and what you are hoping to achieve. We tell you what is realistic, what the likely planning route is and roughly what it will cost. If your idea will not work, or now is not the right time, we will say so.
