Projects we help with in Canterbury
Our Canterbury architect services are suitable for a wide range of residential projects.
Extension Plans
Single-storey extensions, double-storey extensions and more tailored layouts depending on the property and brief.
Loft Conversion Plans
Dormers, hip-to-gable conversions and other loft projects where good drawings make a big difference.
Garage Conversion Plans
Turn unused space into something more useful. We provide the drawings needed to move the project forward.
Annex Plans
For families looking at ancillary accommodation or more flexible living arrangements.
Outbuilding & Garden Rooms
Home offices, studios, gyms, hobby spaces and other detached structures.
Internal Alterations
Not every project changes the outside. We also help with internal reconfiguration projects where drawings are still needed.
Measured surveys and drawing accuracy
The better the starting information, the better the finished drawings. That is why measured survey work is such an important part of the service.
Where needed, we carry out measured surveys and digital capture to help ensure that the plans are based on accurate dimensions and a proper understanding of the existing building. For homeowners, that usually means fewer nasty surprises later.
- The property is irregular
- Previous drawings cannot be relied on
- The project is more complex than average
- Accuracy matters for the next stage of design or construction
