Dorset.
Architectural surveys, planning drawings and Building Regulations services across Sherborne, Dorchester, Weymouth and the Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch area.
Dorset homes.
Clearly considered.
From a measured survey to planning and Building Regulations drawings, we help Dorset homeowners see how their ideas could work and understand the next stage.
The planning authority depends on the property address: Dorset Council or BCP Council. We check the relevant application requirements and prepare drawings suited to the proposal. Coastal sites, conservation areas, listed buildings and landscape or biodiversity constraints may require additional information, which we identify as the project develops.
Services include measured surveys, house-extension and loft-conversion drawings, Certificates of Lawfulness, planning applications and technical Building Regulations packages.
