A selection of our recent work across Essex and Suffolk. Filter by the type of project or the council area.

Raised roof and two-storey rear extension
A dated bungalow redesigned as a family home, reworked point by point after an earlier refusal.

Retrospective permission for a five-building rural cattery
Planning permission for a cattery built as five separate buildings and a reception, rather than one long block, for better ventilation and cat welfare near Chelmsford.

Off-street parking and EV charging for a village home
Planning permission to regularise a front driveway in Great Oakley after enforcement action, backed by a survey proving clear and safe visibility onto the road.

Lowering an extension roof in Colchester, won on appeal
After an extension roof was built taller than approved, we designed a lower roof that solved an enforcement case. The council refused it, and the Inspector allowed our appeal.

First-floor front extension in Ipswich, allowed on appeal
The council refused one part of a house extension scheme in Ipswich. We appealed, and the Inspector found our hipped-roof front extension was good design and allowed it.

Retrospective permission for a garden room
Retrospective planning permission for a garden room in Elmstead that was slightly too tall for permitted development, closing off an enforcement enquiry.
