Ground Floor Extension
Designing a ground floor extension should ensure that the new space complements your existing structure and meets your specific needs.
Here is an overview of the process when seeking a ground floor extension design service
1. Initial Consultation
Get in touch with our team to discuss your requirements, budget, and vision for the extension. Share any specific features or preferences you have in mind.
2. Site Analysis
Our experienced team will assess the existing structure and the surrounding environment. We will consider factors such as orientation, views, natural light, and potential challenges like existing utilities or structural limitations.
3. Conceptual Design
We will develop preliminary design concepts that align with your requirements. Exploring various layout options, architectural styles, and materials.
4. Budgeting and Feasibility
Together we will evaluate the estimated costs associated with different design options and consider feasibility in terms of local building codes, regulations, and any necessary permits.
5. Design Development
As part of the design development process, we will develop detailed plans, elevations, and 3D models to better visualise the extension.
6. Collaboration with Engineers
It will sometimes be necessary to coordinate with structural and mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineers to ensure the feasibility and safety of the design.
7. Permitting Process
We will create a comprehensive set of construction drawings and documents that can be used for obtaining permits and assist in obtaining the necessary permits from local authorities.
8. Project Completion
Once the project is complete, we will carry out a final walkthrough to ensure that the ground extension meets the design required and is to your satisfaction.
