I also have experience in HMO, commercial conversions and listed buildings/conservation areas.

How I Can Help
Architectural Feasibility Studies:
I'll assess the feasibility of your project, taking into account factors such as site constraints, and potential planning issues. We'll work with you to determine the best possible layout for your development, taking into account the site's size, topography, and location. Our feasibility studies will provide you with a clear understanding of the number of houses you can get on the site in order that you can calculate the likely return investment.
Pre-Inquiries with Planning Departments
By submitting a pre- application enquiry with the planners we can get a better understanding of what is favourable and likely to be supported on the site, prior to investing a lot more time and money in drawings / reports that would be required for a full planning application.
Outline and full planning applications
Some clients only have the desire to obtain planning permission for land and then use the permission to sell the land at a higher value. Outline planning applications are perfect for this intention as they involve much less upfront costs for the owner prior to selling the land. We will advise on which course of action would be best to take and how to submit the outline planning application ie some matters reserved.
The level of information that is required for housing developments as part of a full planning application can be daunting. We will offer a full service of obtaining comparison quotations from different external consultants for the different required reports etc and once one is appointed liaise with them directly to ensure that all the strands of the project intertwine and run smoothly and nothing is lost in translation. Examples of reports/documents include land contamination assessments, arboricultural surveys, flood risk assessments, noise and odour reports etc.
Having successfully completed previous residential developments, we are aware of planning policies and design requirements such sight line requirements from neighbouring properties etc in order to allow for a smoother planning application.
Building Regulations
We understand the importance of building regulations compliance, and our team will work closely with you to ensure that all designs meet current building standards and regulations. We'll provide detailed plans and specifications that will facilitate a smoother build process including setting out drawings.
HMO Conversions
We have extensive experience in converting properties into HMOs, and our team can provide expert guidance on the process. We'll work with you to develop a comprehensive plan that ensures your HMO meets all necessary regulations and provides a safe and comfortable living space for your tenants.
Change Of Use Architectural Services
we understand that sometimes your business needs to adapt and evolve. That's where our change of use architectural services come in. We specialize in helping businesses transform their existing spaces into new and functional environments that meet their evolving needs.
I work closely with clients to assess their needs, evaluate the feasibility of the proposed change of use, and create a design plan that optimizes the space to meet your specific requirements.
I have experience working on a wide range of change of use architectural projects, including:
- Converting a retail space into a restaurant or café
- Transforming an office space into a residential unit
- Repurposing a warehouse or industrial space for commercial use
- Converting a residential property into a business premises
- Converting mills & water towers into residential apartments
I understand that each project is unique, and we work closely with our clients to ensure that the final design is tailored to their specific needs and objectives. I use the latest design software and tools to create 3D renderings and walkthroughs that help clients visualize the final product and make informed decisions throughout the design process.
