Local to Kirkintilloch
Site visits are available across Kirkintilloch (G66). Neighbouring towns we cover include Bishopbriggs (3 miles), Bearsden (7 miles), Clydebank (10 miles), Dumbarton (16 miles).
Cumbernauld, in Lanarkshire, is roughly 6 miles from Kirkintilloch 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.
Included in a typical project
- Design for accessibility: level thresholds, wider doors, walk-in shower
- Planning application describing ancillary use
- Separate or shared heating and hot water
- Kitchenette, shower room and bedroom finish
- Fire separation and alarms to building regulations
Accessibility is cheaper to design in than to retrofit. Level access, a 900 mm door width, a level-access shower and space to turn a wheelchair can all be planned into the footprint for little extra cost.
Planning rules that apply in Kirkintilloch
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. Separately, almost every extension needs a building warrant from the council before work starts.
Homes in conservation areas, national scenic areas and listed buildings have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Where work affects a shared wall or a neighbour's land, we agree access, protection and making good with your neighbour in writing before work starts.
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.
