How it works

From "we need more space" to a builder on site.

No mystery stages, no invoices that arrive with a shrug. Here's every step for any home project, what it costs, and who does what.

  1. 01

    Book and pay

    IN YOUR PACKAGE

    Pick the fixed-price package that matches your project. One call, one decision, and you know the price before you spend anything.

    • ·You ring us, or we ring you — 15 minutes, free, no script.
    • ·We tell you honestly whether your project needs planning permission at all.
    • ·You pick the fixed-price package that fits your project — and that's the number on your invoice.
  2. 02

    We capture your home

    IN YOUR PACKAGE

    A guided phone scan and photos, usually done in under 30 minutes. Or add a surveyor visit for £399 if you'd rather not hold the phone.

    • ·We book a capture call at a time that suits you, including evenings.
    • ·We walk you round your own home on the phone: what to measure, what to photograph.
    • ·Most people are done in under 30 minutes. Surveyor visit available for £399.
  3. 03

    Design and planning

    IN YOUR PACKAGE

    Drawings you approve on a screen-share, then your application is submitted and managed for you. The council's own fee (around £548 plus the portal fee) is paid direct to them by you — we never mark it up.

    • ·Existing and proposed drawings prepared: plans, elevations, sections.
    • ·You review them on a screen-share and we change what you don't like — up to three rounds.
    • ·We submit the application and manage it, chasing the case officer so you don't have to.
    • ·The council's own fee (around £548 plus the portal fee) is paid by you, direct to them.
  4. 04

    Builder-ready pack

    WE GUIDE YOU NEXT

    Construction and building-regs drawings prepared while the council is deciding, so you don't lose weeks waiting.

    • ·While the council decides, we can prepare construction and building-regs drawings.
    • ·That's what a builder needs to price accurately and what building control needs to sign off.
  5. 05

    Know your real cost

    WE GUIDE YOU NEXT

    An itemised build estimate within 48 hours of approval — a real breakdown, not a calculator guess.

    • ·An itemised build estimate, back within 48 hours of your approval.
    • ·Line by line, so you can see where the money actually goes.
  6. 06
