What the guidance asks of a plan
National planning practice guidance says any plans or drawings must be drawn to an identified scale, and plans must show the direction of north. A location plan should typically be 1:1250. We follow this on every Redbridge sheet.
How a Redbridge plan set comes together
We begin with a measured building survey in Redbridge, draw the plans from it, then pass them on to the planning drawings stage if you need elevations and sections. For central Ilford addresses, see floor planning in Ilford IG1.
The pricing page lists the fee for each stage.
