Working in Clydebank
Site visits are available across Clydebank (G81). The same team covers Bearsden (3 miles), Dumbarton (7 miles), Bishopbriggs (7 miles), Vale of Leven (8 miles), all within easy reach.
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.
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.
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.
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 utility room extensions
How long does a utility room extension take to build in Clydebank?
On site, typically 6 to 10 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 4–10 weeks design and approvals.
Will my neighbours in Clydebank 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.
Do you cover all of Clydebank?
Yes. We cover Clydebank and the surrounding parts of Dunbartonshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Does a utility extension need planning permission?
Often not, if it is single storey and within permitted development limits. We check this for your property.
Can a utility have a toilet?
Yes, space permitting. A WC needs drainage and extraction, which we plan into the design.
