PLANNING PERMISSION:
It is crucial to ensure that a complete set of forms is submitted with the planning application. All applications should be accompanied by accurate scale drawings. A design and access statement is frequently needed in addition to a complete set of planning drawings and your properly filled-out application form; even in cases where it is not, it is still a good idea.
All architectural elements, such as walls, windows, doors, rooms, materials, building heights, and ceiling heights, should be shown in the drawings. For many kinds of new developments or changes of use, a design and access statement is also necessary with planning applications to support how design standards and planning policies are adhered to.
BUILDING CONTROL:
It's crucial to realize that you will still require professionals to design and construct your project because building regulations are the legal minimum standards for the design and construction of buildings that help ensure the health and safety of people in or around those buildings.
Building control organizations examine the rules and verify that plans and construction on the site comply with them. Private building control companies are an option, but most people opt to rely on the knowledge of the inspectors on your local government building control team.
