The House Extension Design Process at TYA Builds

What happens between your initial enquiry and work starting on site? Here's a clear guide to our design and planning process.

The design process for a house extension at TYA Builds follows a clear, client-focused path from initial enquiry to work starting on site. Here's what to expect.

Stage 1 — Initial Consultation: Our architects visit your home, discuss your brief, assess the site, and advise on feasibility, planning, and budget. This consultation is free of charge with no obligation.

Stage 2 — Concept Design: We prepare initial sketches and spatial layouts for your feedback. This is an iterative process, and we typically go through two or three rounds before the design is fixed.

Stage 3 — Planning Application: Once the design is agreed, we prepare all drawings and documentation for a planning application (if required) and submit to the local authority.

Stage 4 — Technical Design: With planning consent secured, we develop detailed construction drawings, specification, and structural engineering drawings for building regulations approval.

Stage 5 — Build: Our in-house team delivers the extension, with regular site visits from your architect to ensure quality and conformity with the design.
