Our Services
Not sure where to start? DSB Design can help. We can prepare options for whatever you need and check the viability of your requirements. We will develop options, complete an optional appraisal and guide you towards the best option for you.
On conclusion of the concept design stage, DSB Design will prepare a comprehensive package of drawings and information to ensure your design gains planning consent. DSB Design already has a strong working relationship with local authorities which helps us prepare the right information to ensure the submission of planning applications is an efficient process.
We are proactive and discuss the applications with the local authority at the earliest opportunity ensuring any early concerns are addresses and won’t impact the application process. On occasion, we use 3D visualisations to really bring the project to life!
Once a planning application is approved, DSB will take the plans to the next stage in the process by submitting a building warrant application. Again, this application is submitted to the local authority but to a different team. DSB Design has built a professional relationship with Building Standards and this can assist when obtaining consent.
At this stage, DSB Design would recommend consulting with a structural engineer if required to prepare any information for submission. The building warrant is part of a detailed package of information, submitted to the local authority to approve/verify and prepares sufficient information for a contractor to build the project.
DSB Design will continue to support the project and will always be available during the construction phase of the works. At this stage, DSB Design’s involvement is usually project-based and bespoke to suit your needs.
Support includes dealing with site queries, revisions to approved plans or submission of information to conclude the construction compliance plans issued form the local authority.
