Planning Drawings
We create detailed planning drawings for residential and commercial projects, including extensions, conversions, and new builds. Our accurate scaled drawings ensure compliance with local authority requirements, facilitating smooth planning applications. Clients receive comprehensive visual representations to guide construction teams effectively.
Building Regulations
Our building regulation drawings meet safety and welfare standards for extensions, loft conversions, and structural changes. We provide detailed construction documentation for approval by local authorities, ensuring projects adhere to current legislation and technical specifications.
3D Modelling
We produce high-quality 3D models using Sketchup and other tools, offering realistic visuals for residential and commercial developments. These models aid in design communication, client presentations, and identifying potential issues before construction begins.

Our measured building surveys capture precise property dimensions for renovations, extensions, or registry purposes. We deliver scaled floor plans, elevations, and cross-sections to support accurate design and planning applications.
