    Most local authorities will issue a warrant approx 8 weeks after application.

  • Do I need planning permission for my garage conversion?

    Sometimes permitted development rights have been removed from some properties with regard to garage conversions, particularly if you live in a new housing development. There may be other circumstances when planning permission is necessary, so it is always best to contact your local authority to check

    This leaves a seamless, perfect finish. We use a professional brick matcher, who will come to site prior to commencement, who will send you a few brick samples to ensure you are completely happy with the brick we lay on your job.
