At Chief Architectural Ltd, we recently completed the architectural plans and structural calculations for a large detached house located in Southsea, Portsmouth. The client wanted an extension to the rear of the property to create a new kitchen and open plan layout, which required removing a wall to make it a spacious open plan kitchen dining room.

Our team of experienced architectural designers worked closely with the client to develop a design that met their specific needs while also adhering to all planning regulations. The extension will require planning permission, and we are providing guidance to the client to ensure that all planning requirements are met. Once planning permission is granted, the next step will be to obtain building regulations.

We conducted detailed structural calculations to ensure that the design meets all safety and structural requirements. As a responsible architectural firm, we take safety very seriously, and we use the latest technology to carry out these calculations to ensure that all our designs are safe and structurally sound. Our rigorous approach ensures that the client can have peace of mind, knowing that their project is in safe hands.

While the extension has not started yet, we are working closely with the client to find a local builder who can bring the project to life. Our team has a wealth of experience working with builders, and we will ensure that the selected builder can deliver the project to the highest standards while also adhering to the agreed budget.

At Chief Architectural Ltd, we pride ourselves on providing a complete service, from initial design to completion of the project. We understand that building regulations and structural calculations can be complex and confusing, which is why we provide clear and concise guidance to our clients throughout the process. We work closely with our clients to ensure that all building regulations are met, and the extension is completed to the highest standards.

Our team of experienced architectural surveyors and designers would be delighted to work with you and provide our expertise to create a design that meets your specific needs, while also ensuring safety and compliance with building regulations.
