Each project is different from the last so we always advise getting in touch to discuss yours. Once you have instructed Daking Designs to act on your behalf to gain Planning & Building Regulations there are 4 simple stages.

1. We visit your property to undertake a measured survey, evening and weekend appointments are available. We produce existing and proposed drawings for your project within a w

eek.

2. Daking Designs will send you two copies of the plans for your approval. As soon as the drawings are finalised we will submit your planning drawings to the local authority, and act as your planning agent.

3. Once Planning Permission is granted, we will be ready to proceed in the production of your Building Regulation drawings. These are detailed construction drawings which are submitted to the local building control department for approval.

4. When the plans have been approved by Building Control, Daking Designs will send you two copies of the plans along with the approval certificates.

Another project completed in Colchester ✨

This design focused on a rear extension to create a larger, open-plan kitchen and living space — perfect for modern family living.

Featuring sleek bi-fold doors that open up to the garden and a stunning flat roof lantern to flood the space with natural light ☀️

We’re so pleased with how this one turned out!

“Probably too small a project for you…”

We hear that sometimes — but no project is too small for us.

This porch in Frinton-on-Sea, Essex required planning permission and is now complete. A small addition that makes a big difference to the entrance and everyday use of the home.

Why do extensions cost more than people expect?

Because they’re not just “extra space.”

They’re structural alterations.
They’re integration with an existing building.
They’re hidden steel, upgraded services, and detailed coordination.

And most importantly — they’re complex.

The majority of budget overruns we see don’t come from builders.
They come from unclear scope, incomplete drawings, and late design decisions.

Good design doesn’t increase cost.
It gives you control over it.

If you’re thinking about extending your home, let’s talk early and plan it properly.
