Our Unique Planning and Design Services
We all know how tempting it is to jump straight in with your own unique design when it comes to wanting a new loft extension or conservatory – in fact, with any new building work or remodeling, regardless of whether it’s domestic or commercial.
The sooner you start, the faster it’ll be done, right?
Wrong! Sadly, unless you have done some essential planning upfront, you can seriously make some expensive mistakes…
So, once you have decided to invest your finances into your existing home, a new build or a workplace, you want to have peace of mind that whatever designs and decisions you had in mind for the property, will maximise your investment.
The design phase, also known as the pre-construction phase, relies on planning as the foundation of its success.
It is, therefore, imperative that planning – with a creative partner, is essential to ensure this success happens.
The Design Process
When you have a construction project in mind, it is essential you also have an appropriate budget, a timely, realistic schedule, as well as a clearly defined design plan.
By working with one of our in-house team members, you can ensure that your designs are translated into an incredible final result of which you can be incredibly proud.
Your concept for your build can be turned into a reality with diligent planning.
And it all starts with an initial meeting to discuss your ideas, the logistics, and the final project outcomes with you and the creative team.
Together you’ll explore options and decisions that will ultimately lead to your fantastic finished product, albeit a kitchen, bathroom, or completely new build.
The in-house architectural team will then draw up your architectural, structural, and engineering drawings, as and if needed.
Permits are another critical step you may need that Build It Construction Reading can handle on your behalf.
These are important to ensure that your property’s value is protected, and that code compliance is also guaranteed, which will save you money in the long run.

F.A.Q.
Build It Construction Reading have put together some common frequently asked questions along with some answers that you may find helpful.
However if your query hasn’t been answered please fill out our contact form and we’ll get back to you…
Can you handle the planning application for us?
Yes, we have a wealth of experience with the Planning Department and we can help you through each stage of the process, from the initial outline planning submission to the building warrant and completion certificate. We can’t guarantee permission will be granted, but if we think there is a reasonable chance of success, we will apply as your agent.
How long does the planning process take and how much does it cost?
The statutory period for consideration is normally 2 months, but it can extend beyond this if, for example further information is required. The cost of a planning application will depend on the stage of the application and what you are applying for. However fees are payable at different stages of the process and these would be included and detailed within our fees.
What happens if my planning application is refused?
Can you produce plans for a New Build?
Of course! Schedule a free consultation with one of our team and we will discuss your requirements.
Will your plans add value?
Adding planning permission to your home will typically increase its market worth.
