Architectural drawings
across the BCP area.
Planning and Building Regulations drawings for extensions, loft conversions and alterations across Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch.
Plans for your home.
Clear from the start.
Whether you are extending a house in Bournemouth, altering a property in Poole or planning a loft conversion in Christchurch, we prepare accurate drawings and help you understand the application route. Your drawing package is shaped around the property and the information the council asks for.
BCP Council’s Local Validation Checklist sets out requirements according to the development type, site location and constraints. From January 2026 the council also introduced a revised approach to amendments and requires photographs for certain applications, making a complete initial pack increasingly important.
The BCP area includes coastal sites, conservation areas, flats and a wide variety of residential building types. An Article 4 direction also means planning permission is required for C3-to-C4 HMO changes across the Bournemouth area and Talbot Village in Poole.
We provide planning and technical drawings for house extensions, loft and garage conversions, HMOs, internal alterations and window or door changes where external consent is required.
