SW15 questions

Building Regulations Drawings in Putney — your questions answered

Can I extend a West Putney (SW15) house?

Yes. The Victorian and Edwardian terraces and inter-war semis around Howards Lane and Carlton Drive suit side-return, rear and double-storey extensions plus loft conversions, much of it within Permitted Development outside the conservation areas. We confirm the route and draw to Wandsworth's validation checklist.

Are there restrictions near Putney Embankment or the river?

Yes. The Putney Embankment conservation area and the Thames frontage carry both conservation control and flood-risk requirements, so riverside changes need full planning and a flood-risk assessment. We design within those constraints and produce the survey and heritage drawings required for SW15 riverside addresses.

Is a loft conversion Permitted Development in Putney (SW15)?

Usually yes on the terraces and semis — a hip-to-gable plus rear dormer within the volume allowance, confirmed by a Lawful Development Certificate, provided you're not in the West Putney or Embankment conservation areas. We check the constraints for your road and draw it for Building Control.

Can I alter a house on the Dover House Estate, Roehampton?

The Dover House (Putney Garden) Estate is a designated conservation area of cottage-style housing with strong character controls, so extensions there are assessed tightly on form and materials. We design sympathetically and submit a full application with a Heritage Statement where required.

How much does building regulations drawings cost in SW15 (Putney)?

Our fixed fee for building regulations drawings in Putney starts at £840 — no hourly billing. With Putney property at around £550,000 for a flat and £1.1m-£1.7m for a house, the professional drawing fee is a small fraction of the value the work adds to SW15's victorian and edwardian terraces near putney centre. Wandsworth Council charges its own statutory application fee on top (currently £258 for a householder planning application, £578 for a full application). We quote the drawings as one fixed price and the free site survey covers every SW15 address.

How long does building regulations drawings take in Putney?

For a SW15 project across Putney, West Putney, Roehampton, Putney Heath, expect roughly 3–4 weeks from instruction to submission: week 1 the measured survey, weeks 2–3 the drawings and your revisions, then validation and the statutory determination by Wandsworth Council (8 weeks for a householder application). We carry the Putney application through every officer query to the decision.

Who decides planning applications in SW15?

Putney (SW15) sits primarily in Wandsworth, so applications are decided by Wandsworth Council. Article 4 in force in the borough: Yes. Conservation areas within SW15 include Putney Embankment, West Putney, Dover House Estate, where full planning and a Heritage Statement are required. We confirm the planning route for your exact address before quoting.

Do I need building regulations and a Party Wall agreement in SW15?

Almost always. Any structural work behind building regulations drawings in Putney — new openings, steel beams, loft floors, foundations — needs Building Regulations approval covering structure (Part A), fire escape (Part B) and insulation (Part L), submitted to Wandsworth Council Building Control or an approved inspector. On SW15's typically terraced and semi-detached stock, a Party Wall notice to adjoining neighbours is normally required before the steelwork. We coordinate both as part of the Complete package.

Is building regulations drawings worth it for a SW15 property?

In value terms, yes. With Putney (SW15) property at around £550,000 for a flat and £1.1m-£1.7m for a house, a well-designed extension or loft typically returns more than it costs in added floor area and sale value, while our fixed drawing fee from £840 keeps the professional cost predictable. The bigger risk is an unapproved or non-compliant scheme — which is why council-ready drawings and a clean Building Control sign-off matter on SW15 homes.
