Planning Permission in County Armagh

Planning permission is an essential requirement of any extensions to your home. You can engage the services of an architect or architectural services firm to assist you through the process of obtaining planning permission for your home extension. Architects are familiar with submitting planning applications, and will have a good knowledge of the requirements and limits both country wide and in your local area. The majority of planning permission applications are granted, especially if you can establish that your building work is sympathetic to the conditions laid out by local authority policy.

Architects can help with every aspect of your planning application, from creating technical and architectural drawings to filing paperwork with the local authority. They are able to also make sure that your proposed work is designed to a high standard, creating practical and beautiful spaces that will suit your current property. While some alterations to your property are covered by permitted development rights and as a consequence won’t need planning permission, you’ll still need to adhere to building regulations. Hiring an architect to draft the plans for your alteration will ensure that any work you carry out will conform to these regulations and be of a high standard.
