The Extension Ready Pack — Homeowner Planning Guide

The Extension Ready Pack is a practical homeowner guide designed to help you understand the early stages of an extension, loft conversion or renovation project before committing to drawings, planning applications, builders or major costs.

Inside the pack, you’ll find clear guidance, worksheets and supporting tools to help you:

• shape your project brief

• understand planning permission and permitted development

• understand how planning applications are usually prepared

• record measured survey information

• prepare useful sketch notes

• understand what drawings and documents may be needed

• build an early budget plan

• compare builder quotes more clearly

• avoid common project mistakes

• ask better questions throughout the project

• track responsibilities, RFIs and key decisions

• understand a typical project timeline

This pack is designed to help you feel more prepared, more informed and more confident before moving forward with your project.

If you later instruct Planwise Studio to prepare your planning drawings, the full purchase price of this pack can be credited against your planning design fee.

Important note:

This pack provides general guidance only and does not replace professional advice specific to your property or project. Planning permission, permitted development, Building Regulations, structural design, Party Wall matters and construction costs should be checked by suitably competent professionals before work begins.
