Planning Drawings

Planning drawings are a key part of your application and typically include:

  • Existing and proposed floor plans
  • Elevations (how your property will look externally)
  • Site and location plans
  • Design details required by the local authority

All drawings are prepared clearly and accurately, ensuring they meet planning requirements and present your proposal properly.

Turning Your Ideas into Approved Plans

Once your initial ideas are agreed, the next step is to develop your design and prepare the drawings required for planning.

This stage is about refining the layout, proportions and overall design of your project, while ensuring it aligns with local planning requirements.

Whether you’re planning a home extension, loft conversion or new build, the goal is to give your application the best chance of approval.
