Feltham is an outer-west Hounslow suburb built largely between the wars and in the post-war decades, so the bulk of our work here is family-driven: single-storey rear extensions, side-return infills and loft conversions on 1930s semis and estate housing. Wide plots on roads such as Southern Avenue and Ashmead Road usually leave comfortable room to extend under permitted development while keeping the front elevation intact.

Where a plot sits near the St Dunstan's or Hanworth Park conservation areas, or on the lower ground close to the River Crane, we design to Hounslow Council's expectations from the outset — matching brick and roof lines, respecting the depth and height limits, and building in flood-resilient drainage detail so the application clears validation without an avoidable refusal.

Planning in Feltham (TW13): what to know before you apply

There is no published householder Article 4 direction in Feltham, so most rear and loft projects proceed under permitted development. Watch the St Dunstan's, Hanworth Park and Feltham Town Centre conservation areas, and the flood constraint on plots near the River Crane, where PD rights and extension depths are more tightly read.

Typical Feltham housing stock

Feltham is dominated by 1930s bay-fronted semis and post-war council-built estates, with generous rear gardens on roads like Southern Avenue and Glebelands Road. Plots are wide enough for single-storey rear extensions, side infills and hip-to-gable loft conversions without needing to touch the front elevation.

Floor Plans for Feltham (TW13) homes: the package and the process

Every floor plans we prepare for an Feltham property is drawn to London Borough of Hounslow’s validation standards and tuned to the TW13 constraints above. Here is what the drawing package covers and how the process runs from first survey to approval.

Not every project needs a full planning drawing set. If you are selling or letting a property, drawing up a lease, recording a layout before a refurbishment, or simply want an accurate plan of your home, what you need is a floor plan — a scaled, dimensioned drawing of each level, measured directly from the property rather than estimated from an old plan or an estate agent's rough sketch. DrawingsDirect produces floor plans from a laser-measured site visit, so room sizes, wall thicknesses and door and window positions are accurate, not approximate.

Floor plans are commonly used for estate agency marketing and Rightmove or Zoopla listings, for lease plans required by a mortgage lender or solicitor, for landlords documenting a rental property's layout, or as a straightforward existing-layout record before any building work is decided. They are lighter than a full architectural or planning drawing set — there is no design work, no application, and no borough-specific requirements to satisfy — so turnaround is fast and the fee is correspondingly lower. If you later decide to extend, convert a loft or apply for planning permission, the same laser survey can usually be reused as the base for those drawings rather than re-measuring the property from scratch.

What are floor plans used for?

Floor plans serve several distinct purposes in London property: estate agents use them to market a sale or letting alongside photographs, giving buyers and tenants an accurate sense of layout and scale that a floor plan on its own can convey better than photos; solicitors and lenders often require a lease plan showing the demise of a flat within a building, particularly for leasehold sales or re-mortgages; landlords use them to document a property's layout for reference, insurance or portfolio management; and homeowners use them simply to have an accurate record of their existing layout, whether for their own reference or as the first step before considering any building work.

How accurate are laser-measured floor plans?

We measure every floor plan on site using a laser distance meter rather than a tape measure or estimation from photographs, which keeps room dimensions, wall thicknesses and door and window positions accurate to within a few millimetres. This matters more than it might seem: an estate agent's marketing plan that overstates a room's size can mislead a buyer and cause problems at survey stage, while a lease plan used for legal purposes needs to accurately reflect what a leaseholder actually owns. A laser-measured plan also means that if you later want to use it as the existing-layout drawing for a planning application, it is already accurate enough to build proposed drawings on top of, rather than needing to be re-measured.

FAQ

Floor Plans in Feltham TW13 — FAQs

How much do floor plans cost in London?+
Floor plans start from £450 for a laser-measured, scaled drawing of each floor, with the exact fee depending on the size of the property and the number of floors involved.
How long does it take to get floor plans?+
Most floor plans are ready within a few days of the site survey, considerably faster than a full planning drawing set, since there is no design or application work involved.
Can floor plans be used for a lease or mortgage application?+
Yes — laser-measured floor plans are commonly used as lease plans and for mortgage or re-mortgage purposes; let us know at the outset if you need a specific format or additional detail such as room areas.
Can I reuse my floor plans if I later want to extend or convert my loft?+
Yes — the laser survey behind your floor plans can usually be reused as the existing-layout base drawing for a future planning or building regulations application, saving you from a second site visit.
Do you provide floor plans for estate agents?+
Yes, floor plans are commonly instructed directly by homeowners or via their estate agent ahead of a sale or letting, drawn to scale and ready to use alongside marketing photography.
Do I need planning permission for an extension in Hounslow?+
It depends on the area. The interwar semis of Osterley, Hounslow and Feltham often retain permitted development rights for rear extensions and lofts, while the Chiswick terraces and Bedford Park sit within conservation areas where those rights are removed. We check your address against the designations first and can confirm permitted development with a Lawful Development Certificate.
What extra control applies in Bedford Park?+
Bedford Park is one of West London's most tightly controlled conservation areas, with detailed control over materials, rooflines, windows and front elevations. A standard permitted-development dormer or cladding change usually won't apply; instead we design to the area's Arts-and-Crafts character and prepare a full householder application with the elevations and materials the council expects.
Does Heathrow or the river affect my Hounslow project?+
They can. Toward the west of the borough, aircraft-noise considerations near Heathrow may influence habitable-room and glazing design, and along the Thames at Strand-on-the-Green and Isleworth the flood zone must be addressed. We evidence these considerations within the application where they apply so the council can validate and approve without repeated revisions.
How long does Hounslow Council take to decide?+
Hounslow determines most householder applications within the statutory eight-week period once validated; Bedford Park, conservation and riverside cases can involve additional consultation. We prepare submissions to the council's validation checklist to avoid the drawing queries that cause most delays.
How much do planning drawings cost in Hounslow?+
We agree a fixed fee before starting, typically around 30% below an architect's fee for the same council-accepted drawings, with free redraws until Hounslow approves. A suburban Osterley extension and a Bedford Park application differ in the evidence required, so we quote once we understand your address and project rather than by the hour.
