Planning Searches - Our planning experts run planning searches on your property to ascertain its planning history. We check for previous developments (lawful and unlawful), Article 4 Directions and your Local Authority’s held status of your site. We explore your Permitted Development Rights and confirm the full planning opportunities and constraints attached to your property.
Existing Home Model - A full laser survey will be carried out and used to create your existing site model. This survey will also capture critical information about your site’s condition to establish core service networks and any onsite construction types.
Design Meeting - During this onsite creative session one of our Architectural Designers will give you the unique opportunity to explore all of the ideas (and concerns) you may have about your project.During the meeting you will discover the best way to add space to your home and learn how to optimise your budget. We will also be able to answer any questions that you may have, for instance; planning, design style, materials, home technologies, build costs, timelines etc...
Concept Design - The design team bring your potential project to life in 3D, including rendered visualisations, internal and external images. This aspect of your Model Projects creation pack will enable you to imagine the proposed spaces and envisage the true potential of your home.
Budget Analysis - A key aspect of your feasibility report will be the cost of the project. Model Projects provides you with an initial approximate build cost and market analysis of the proposed design. This allows you to review the true feasibility of completing the works which are on your wish list. The next stage of our process (Design Development Pack), will provide you with a more in depth build cost breakdown for your project. This includes a smart budget calculator to help you understand your allowances for elements such as kitchens, bathrooms, flooring and much more.
Project Plan - The final element of your Creation Pack is your project plan. This provides you with details of all the services that you will require for your personal project such as; planning applications, party wall applications, engineer calculations, utilities applications etc.. Some, if not all of these requirements, will need to be completed prior to commencement of building works.
