Covering Vale of Leven
We cover Vale of Leven and the postcode districts G82. Neighbouring towns we cover include Dumbarton (2 miles), Clydebank (8 miles), Bearsden (10 miles), Bishopbriggs (15 miles).
Just over the Renfrewshire and Inverclyde border, Erskine is about 7 miles away. Scotland's housing includes sandstone villas, terraces and tenements in the cities and plenty of post-war and modern houses and bungalows elsewhere. A building warrant is needed before work starts.
Do I need planning permission in Vale of Leven?
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.

Your questions about a conservatory replacement in Vale of Leven
Do you cover all of Vale of Leven?
Yes. We cover Vale of Leven and the surrounding parts of Dunbartonshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Do I need building regulations approval in Vale of Leven?
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 Vale of Leven, 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 keep the existing base?
Sometimes, but conservatory bases are often too shallow for solid walls. Trial holes tell us before we confirm the price.
Does replacing a conservatory need planning permission?
A solid replacement is treated as a new extension, so it must meet the permitted development limits or get planning permission, and it always needs building regulations approval.
