Good to know
Common questions
General guidance about builders in the UK, not specific to any one business.
Do I need planning permission for an extension?
Most single-storey extensions under certain size limits don't need planning permission if they meet Building Regulations. Two-storey extensions usually do. Local authority rules vary by location. Check with the council before starting work.
How long does a loft conversion typically take?
A standard loft conversion takes 8–12 weeks from start to finish, depending on complexity and any issues found during work. Delays can occur if structural reinforcement is needed or unexpected problems are discovered.
What is Building Regulations approval?
Building Regulations are legal standards for safety, structure and energy efficiency. Extensions, loft conversions and renovations must meet these standards. A surveyor inspects work at key stages and issues completion certificates.
How do I know if my groundworks are done properly?
Foundations should be level, compacted correctly and at the right depth for soil type. Drainage should slope away from buildings. A building control inspector will check depths, materials and concrete strength during and after work.
What causes brickwork to fail?
Mortar degrades from weathering, freeze-thaw damage, and poor original mix. Bricks can spall if exposed to damp or frost. Missing pointing lets water in. Structural movement from subsidence or poor foundations cracks masonry.
What should happen before renovation work starts?
A full survey identifies structural issues, asbestos, damp and rot. Quotes are obtained. Planning and Building Regulations approvals are secured if needed. Utilities are located. A written contract and timeline are agreed.
