★★★★★5.0· 30 Google reviewsWhat we do
Scaled floor plans showing the property now and as designed, so the change is clear at a glance.
How the proposal looks from each side, in proportion and in context with the existing house.
The plan that identifies your property and its boundaries for the application.
Where required, a short statement explaining and justifying the design.
A typical householder planning application is supported by existing and proposed plans and elevations, a location plan and a site plan. Some proposals also need a design and access statement, particularly in sensitive locations.
Wirral Council, like all local planning authorities, validates the application against its requirements before assessing it. Well-prepared drawings reduce the risk of delays at validation.
