Extensions in and around Dingwall
Site visits are available across Dingwall (IV15). We also work in nearby Inverness (11 miles), Nairn (21 miles), Fort William (60 miles), Thurso (75 miles).
Forres, in Moray, is roughly 31 miles from Dingwall and also on our list. Across Scotland, extensions follow Scottish planning and building standards, including the building warrant process, which we build into the programme from the start.
Planning rules that apply in Dingwall
In Scotland, householder permitted development rules (Class 1A for single-storey ground-floor extensions and Class 1B for extensions of more than one storey) allow some smaller extensions without a planning application, within limits on depth, height and distance from the boundary. Conservation areas and listed buildings are more restricted.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
In Scotland a building warrant from the council is needed before work starts on almost any extension, and a completion certificate is issued when the work is accepted. Building standards are set in the Scottish technical handbooks.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of Scottish Water, which we check during design.
Applications are decided by your council as planning authority.

Your questions about an annexe extension in Dingwall
Who do I contract with for an annexe extension in Dingwall?
Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.
Do I need building regulations approval in Dingwall?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. In Scotland that means a building warrant before work starts.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Dingwall, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
How much does an annexe extension cost?
Our guide range is about £1,960 to £3,720 per m² including VAT. A one-bedroom annexe of about 35 m² is typically £82,000 to £103,000 at standard spec in Dingwall.
Can the annexe have its own front door?
Yes, many do, but it should still connect to the main house to stay clearly part of it.
