What we need from you to start

Your full address, including the postcode, is what we need to confirm the council and arrange the survey. A line on what the plans are for helps too: a loft conversion, a rear extension, a sale or simply a record of the layout.

Please do not worry about having old drawings. Where they exist they are useful for comparison, but the plans we produce are drawn from measurements taken at the property. Read how that survey works in our guide to what a measured building survey involves.

Planning a loft or extension in Beckenham

Loft and extension projects begin with the same document: an accurate existing floor plan. The designer places the new space on it, checks how stairs, walls and openings will work and then prepares the drawings the council asks for.

How much permission you need depends on the work, the house and the street, and our permitted development entry is a sensible first read. Our Bromley planning permission page explains how applications are handled in the borough.

FAQ

Questions people ask

How much is a floor plan in Beckenham?
A Beckenham floor plan, measured on site, costs from £275. Once we have your BR3 address we can give you the exact fee.
Do I need a floor plan to plan a loft extension?
Yes. Any loft design needs an accurate plan of the floor below it, because the stairs and structure have to line up.
Is BR3 the same as the Bromley council area?
Most BR3 addresses are in Bromley, but check yours, because postcode districts do not follow council boundaries exactly.
