The Planning process takes approximately eight weeks from the validation of the application, and Building Regulations approval usually five-six weeks. We will have regular contact with both departments throughout the approval process and keep you fully informed. We submit all of our applications digitally, saving on paper and printing costs. Should Building Control require any additional structural calculations we can arrange for a Structural Consultant to provide these for an additional fee. As Partners with Halton Borough Council Building Control we have a daily one to one working relationship with them which helps the application process run smoothly. Once the Approvals are received you can start work on your home. Should you opt for our Extended Service, we will prepare a Quotation Package with additional details including a written specification document. We will acquire prices from local builders and can provide references should you require. We will then negotiate with the lowest priced builder and arrange for them to start on site.
