Architectural Drawings in West Ealing | Fixed-Fee Plans

For West Ealing property owners: MCIAT chartered measured floor plans and elevations. West Ealing planning decisions are made by Ealing Council, working to Ealing Local Plan policy across the W13 district.

What is architectural drawings in West Ealing?

Architectural Drawings in West Ealing are scaled West Ealing floor plans, elevations and sections describing a W13 property as existing and as proposed. Ealing Council is the authority for every W13 address, they start with a laser measured survey of the West Ealing address and carry every W13 submission to Ealing Council, householder application through to full plans, and the Ealing Local Plan sets the policy test.

Ealing Council context

Do I need architectural drawings in West Ealing?

An Article 4 Direction applies across Ealing, so check it before assuming West Ealing permitted development survives. Because West Ealing is Edwardian terraces, the officer's assessment leans on streetscape impact around West Ealing station as much as on the numbers. West Ealing sits close enough to Hanwell that designation should be checked at the outset, not after design. We plot the West Ealing site against the designation before quoting.

The West Ealing Article 4 position is established at survey, before design. On West Ealing stock the constraint is physical before it is planning: the edwardian terraces fixes the rear wall line and the West Ealing station roofline caps the ridge. The borough policy layer over every W13 address is set out on Ealing planning. The West Ealing survey then carries into house extension drawings in West Ealing if the project runs on to construction.

Timeline

How long does Ealing Council take to decide?

Before Ealing Council determines anything, London Borough of Ealing has to validate the West Ealing submission — one to two weeks, longer if a plan is missing. Everything begins by measuring the West Ealing property properly — openings, levels, structure — before a proposal exists.

Statutory periods: 8 weeks from validation for a householder application, 13 weeks for a major scheme, 6 weeks for prior approval with a 21 days neighbour consultation, and 5 weeks for a full plans building control submission. A party structure notice requires one month notice and two months where excavation is involved.

Amendments during the West Ealing determination are handled without a resubmission where possible. We issue the W13 drawings numbered and revision-controlled.

Speaking to W13 neighbours before submission avoids most of it. A West Ealing measured survey captures the roof structure as well as the plan.

Most West Ealing terraces share a flank wall, so party wall notices apply. Once consent is granted, planning permission follows for the W13 property.

Local building fabric

What West Ealing's housing stock means for your plans

West Ealing is characterised by edwardian terraces, concentrated across W13 in the West Ealing area. Every West Ealing scheme starts from what is actually there: edwardian terraces, surveyed to the millimetre before a proposal is drawn. On the West Ealing stock specifically: edwardian back additions here are often out of plumb, which matters once a steel goes in. In W13 that determines the depth we can draw. A West Ealing proposal that breaks the prevailing eaves line invites a refusal.

Subterranean W13 work needs a structural case as much as a planning one. Where the project also touches building regulations drawings for W13 properties or loft conversion drawings, the same measured survey of the West Ealing property carries across — you pay for the survey once, not per application.

West Ealing questions

Architectural Drawings in West Ealing — common questions

Does a West Ealing house need architectural drawings?

Not always. Where a West Ealing property is a house rather than a flat, is unlisted and sits outside Hanwell, many W13 projects run under permitted development. An Article 4 Direction applies across Ealing, so check it before assuming West Ealing permitted development survives. We confirm the route free at survey and, where the evidence trail matters for a W13 sale, submit a lawful development certificate at £274.

Does conservation status apply to my W13 address?

Parts of West Ealing fall inside Hanwell. There, the character appraisal — not the size limits — sets what will pass.

What housing stock do you handle in West Ealing?

Most West Ealing instructions are edwardian terraces; each is measured before we draw.

Which neighbouring areas do you survey?

All of Ealing and the neighbouring Hounslow. Ealing Broadway is the closest patch to West Ealing, but its constraints are not identical.
