You may want to add more space by building rooms in your roof or have a completely new extension in character with you existing property. Or you may want to build a garden room as an office, playroom or perhaps, a gym.
These all demand very careful consideration and almost certainly the advise and skills of a professional person such as an architect, surveyor, solicitor or energy efficiency expert. If you are in a conservation area an expert will know exactly what is permissible or how you can effectively and economically meet the planning requirements.
Indeed, if whatever you are planning involves building work you will need to consult your local planning department and the building control people.
Don’t be afraid to speak to them, they really are very approachable and always interested. After, all the earlier contact you make and the more the more precise can be with your the ideas less work there is for them!
