Architectural drawings
in Dorchester.
Planning applications, extension drawings, loft conversions and Building Regulations services in Dorchester and central Dorset.
Clear drawings.
Considered detail.
For an extension, conversion or alteration in Dorchester, we begin with accurate information about the property. We then prepare the drawings and help you understand what needs to be submitted at each stage.
Dorset Council’s application guidance sets out the plans and supporting information needed for a valid submission. We check the current requirements for your project and prepare drawings at the appropriate scale.
Dorchester and its surrounding villages include historic, modern and rural-edge properties. Where relevant, the drawings can show how the proposal responds to neighbouring buildings, landscape, trees and heritage constraints.
Services include extensions, loft and garage conversions, internal alterations, lawful-development applications, measured surveys and technical construction drawings.
