Planning rules that apply in Troon
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.
The planning position for a specific Troon address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of Scottish Water, which we check during design.
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.
Applications are decided by your council as planning authority.
Covering Troon
Across KA10, we can visit, measure and advise. The same team covers Irvine (5 miles), Ayr (6 miles), Kilmarnock (7 miles), Kilwinning (8 miles), all within easy reach.
Newton Mearns, in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde, is roughly 20 miles from Troon 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.

Common questions in Troon
Will my neighbours in Troon be involved?
If a planning application is needed, the council notifies neighbours. Where work is close to a shared boundary, we agree access and protection with them in writing.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Troon, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
