EXTENSION BUILDING REGULATION / CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS
John has successfully carried out building regulation drawings and reports for well over 150 schemes most of which were extensions or alterations to existing buildings.
At Concept 20 we believe DETAIL IS KEY!
Our building regulation drawing packages cover every element of the proposals in full detail above and beyond the minimum requirement to gain building regulation approval & we charge no additional fee for this extra level of detail.
Less queries from Building control as more aspects are covered with large scale drawings rather than notes
A more accurate quote from builders. Less assumptions will need to be made due to the extra information. There is far less chance of being surprised by additional building fees for 'Something that wasn't in the quote'
Much easier job for the Structural Engineer. I make sure to look at the structural design myself & ask the structural engineer to justify my proposals, other architects usually leave all of the structural design to the engineer which costs you extra time and money.
Less queries from builders on site as to how an element of the building is to be constructed due to a higher amount of large scale construction details.
Despite the additional detail, our fee's are no higher than what a typical Architect would charge for building regulation drawings.

I couldn’t have been happier with the service that was received by John.
His attention to detail was unwavering and he listened to everything that was said.
He also offered really great advice when we were stuck for ideas. John ensured that the ideas we did have, were indeed viable through architecture and would be a suitable change for the planning department…we had grand ideas…and were in-keeping with our area.
The quality and details of the drawing were so precise and intricate, we couldn’t have asked for anything more.
Even when we changed our minds about a couple of things, John’s service stayed impeccable. I can highly recommend John on a personal and professional basis. I would not hesitate for a moment, to use his service again.
