Will the council need to approve it?
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.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
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.

Questions people ask about bedroom extensions
Who do I contract with for a bedroom extension in Rutherglen?
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 you cover all of Rutherglen?
Yes. We cover Rutherglen and the surrounding parts of Lanarkshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Rutherglen, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Can I add a ground-floor bedroom for a relative?
Yes. A ground-floor bedroom with an accessible shower room is a common request. If it will be lived in as a self-contained home, planning treats it differently, so tell us how it will be used.
Does an en-suite need a window?
No, but it needs mechanical extraction that meets the building regulations. We design the duct route at the drawing stage.
