We Handle the Red Tape So You Don’t Have To
Whether it’s building notices, full plans applications or permitted development, our team makes sure everything is compliant — saving you stress and avoiding delays.

Building Notice

This document serves as notification for your loft conversion project, informing inspectors about the upcoming construction. It facilitates the estimation of fees and alerts them to anticipate site visits shortly. It’s important to note that no loft conversion building regulations drawings are generated with this option. 

Full Plans Application

Our top recommendation is to opt for Architectural Building Regulations Drawings. These drawings, created by us, undergo pre-checks by the Building Control Officer before the commencement of construction. This assures you that your loft conversion will be in full compliance, eliminating risks down the line.

Permitted Development

Consult the UK Government guide HERE to determine whether your loft conversion requires Planning Permission. Even if it falls under Permitted Development, we strongly advise applying for a Lawful Development Certificate. This not only guarantees compliance but also enhances the property’s market value.

FAQs

If you have further questions or want to learn more, please contact our team through live chat (located at the bottom right of your screen).

Are your Architectural Designers based in the UK?

Yes, all of our Architectural Designers are based in the UK.

How can you guarantee I will get planning permission and building control approval on the Premium plan?

We currently achieve a 94% success rate with planning dept applications and 100% success rate with building control. We are so sure that you will have the best chance of success with us that if the planning dept or building control inspectors refuse your application, we will either:

a) Fully refund your planning application fees - no questions asked (typically £600-1500).
b) Or continue to work on your project making design changes and submitting additional applications until an approval is reached for FREE. We'll even pay the re-application fees.

Are your Architectural Designers self employed?

No. All of our Architectural Designers are full-time employees of Arkiplan Architectural Limited. We do not "outsource" your project to freelancers or temporary/contracted staff.

Have you worked with my council / Local Authority before?

Yes. We have submitted Planning Applications to every council in the UK, some of them many, many times.

Are you able to provide Structural Engineers calculations on my project?

Yes. Absolutely. We will send you a quote once we know the full extent of your proposed building work.

Is your 3D Home Scan survey accurate?

Yes! It is 99% accurate which is actually far better than a laser measure/tape measure and sketch pad. Not to mention, we can "re-visit" your home whenever we need to just by opening the scan file so no dimensions will ever be "assumed" or "guess-timated".

What if I need design changes?

We include three full rounds of unlimited design changes in every quote. These can be utilised at any point throughout the project, whether they are early tweaks or if the planners request changes.
