An extension starts with the layout you already have

Anyone searching for a house extension in Golders Green meets the same first step: an accurate drawing of what stands today. A designer cannot place a new kitchen, a rear addition or a staircase to a loft without knowing where every wall, flue and opening is.

We visit, measure each storey and draw it to scale. The proposed design then builds on that plan, whether it goes to our house extension drawings or rear extension drawings service.

Plans you can measure from

National planning guidance says plans and drawings must be drawn to an identified scale, with the direction of north shown. Our floor plans carry the scale on the sheet so a builder, a surveyor or a council officer can scale off dimensions and get the same answer.

The fixed fee for scaled floor plans for sale, letting or lease starts at £275. Larger houses and extra levels are priced to suit on the pricing page.

Barnet householder decisions: 1,361 and 80% granted

Our analysis of MHCLG planning application statistics, table PS2, shows Barnet made 1,361 householder decisions, including prior approvals, over the four quarters from 2025 Q3 to 2026 Q2. It granted 80% of them.

About a fifth of householder decisions were not granted. That is the council's recent record, not a forecast for your house, but it is a reason to submit plans that are complete and consistent the first time.

Appeals in Barnet

Householders in Barnet won 51% of the 494 appeals decided between 2021 and 2026, by our analysis of the Planning Inspectorate Casework Database (released 1 October 2026). That is a past record, and each case turned on its own facts.

If a refusal is on the table, the survey and plans you already hold are the evidence an inspector reads. Our planning appeal guide walks through the process.

Building under permitted development

Some NW11 projects need no full application. Our analysis of the same release, table PS1, shows Barnet decided 1,619 certificates of lawful development over the eight quarters from 2024 Q3 to 2026 Q2. A certificate confirms in writing that a project is permitted development.

The application needs existing plans like ours alongside the proposed ones. Our lawful development certificate drawings service prepares both.

Conservation areas across Barnet

Barnet has 16 live conservation-area entries on the national register, in our analysis of the MHCLG Planning Data Platform conservation-area dataset (snapshot retrieved 14 August 2026). Whether your own street is inside one is a question for Barnet Council's conservation area map.

The register entry does not tell you what is allowed on your house, so check the council's map and its guidance before you plan the front or sides. The making an application guidance lists what a valid application contains.
