Services
Planning Drawings
We produce detailed planning drawings that illustrate the proposed development and support your planning application. These drawings are prepared using our CAD system, ensuring accuracy to within 1 mm where required. They enable the local authority to assess compliance with planning policies and increase the likelihood of approval.
Building Regulations Drawings
We create building regulations drawings that show how your project will meet structural, fire safety and energy efficiency standards. Prepared with our CAD technology, they provide precise dimensions and construction details for builders. These documents are essential for obtaining building control approval and ensuring the work is safe and lawful.
Specifications
We prepare comprehensive specifications that outline the materials, workmanship and standards required for your project. These specifications guide contractors during construction, helping to avoid misunderstandings and costly variations. By providing clear expectations, they contribute to a smoother build process and protect your investment.
Structural Calculations
We carry out structural calculations to verify that beams, columns and foundations can safely support the imposed loads. Using industryapproved methods, we ensure the design complies with building regulations and reduces risk of failure. The calculations form a key part of the building control submission, giving confidence to both you and the inspector.
SAP Reports
We prepare SAP reports to assess the energy efficiency and carbon emissions of your proposed dwelling. The report calculates the dwelling's SAP rating, which is required for building control approval of new homes and conversions. Achieving a compliant SAP rating helps you meet regulatory standards and can reduce future energy costs for occupants.
