Building Control Drawings Ealing: Professional Architectural Design

Ealing homeowners face specific problems with building regulations. The area has old Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, and modern homes. Each needs different technical work from local architects.

We’ve worked across Ealing. We cover Acton to Perivale. We cover Hanwell to West Ealing. We know what your local building control officer expects. Ealing Council Building Control often asks for extra fire safety details. This is for extensions next to other homes. We expect these requests. We include them in our drawings from the start.

Common Ealing projects needing building control drawings include single storey extension and double storey extension projects. They include loft conversions with dormer additions. They include basement conversions. They include load-bearing wall removal for open-plan living. They include garage conversions. They include house extension projects affecting drains. They include new build developments.

Do I Need an Architect in Watford or Just Building Regulations Drawings?

This depends on your project scope. It depends on whether you need a planning application with building regulations.

You might only need building regulation drawings. This applies if your project is allowed development. This applies if the building design is simple.

You might need full design services. This applies if your project needs planning permission. This applies if you need help designing the space. This applies if your property is in a conservation area or listed building.

AC Design Solution offers both options. We can provide building control drawings only. We can handle planning and building control. We can handle building design and project management.

Can You Provide Both Planning Permission and Building Regulation Drawings in Ealing?

Yes. Most Ealing projects need both planning application and building regulations approval.

We prepare planning drawings first. We submit to Ealing Council. We manage the application to approval. Once planning permission is granted, we develop detailed building control drawings. These are based on the approved planning designs.

This way in our services ensures your building regulation drawings match exactly what the planning application approved.

How Long Does Building Control Approval Take in Ealing?

Ealing Council Building Control typically takes 5-6 weeks. This is to approve building regulation applications. Times vary by application difficulty. They vary by local authority workload. Summer months are busier. They vary by quality of drawings submitted.

We recommend waiting to get building control approval before starting work.

What Makes Your Expert Building Services Different from Other Ealing Architects?

Several factors set us apart from other practices. These practices offer services in Ealing.

Building experience—our directors worked as builders first. They then became Chartered Architectural Technologists.

In-house structural engineering—our structural engineers work directly with our design team. This creates unified drawings.

Fixed fees with no hourly rates or surprise bills.

Local planning knowledge from hundreds of home and business projects across Ealing.

Complete design services handling your entire project. We handle everything from planning application to building support. We provide expert building guidance through the building control process.

Can I Sell My House Without a Building Regulations Certificate?

Yes, you can legally sell without a certificate. But it creates serious problems.

Most mortgage lenders refuse to lend on properties with missing certificates. This is true for extensions or loft conversions. This limits you to cash buyers only. This greatly reduces your buyer pool. It puts you in a weaker negotiating position.

Your best option is applying for a regularisation certificate. You do this through your local authority. This resolves the issue properly.

AC Design Solution can help with regularisation applications in Ealing. We manage the Building Control process. We prepare any needed drawings.

What's Included in Your Set of Building Control Drawings?

A complete building regulation drawings set includes several parts.

You get existing and proposed plans. These show current layout and proposed changes. You get plans and elevations. These show how your home extension or loft conversion looks from each side.

You get sections. These reveal internal building and ceiling heights. You get building details. These show foundation design. They show wall building with insulation layers.

You get beam calculations. These are stamped by a Chartered Engineer. You get drawings and details. These describe materials and building methods. They ensure you follow current building regulations.

You get a site plan. This shows your property boundary. It shows drain connections to local authority systems.

All drawings are prepared in CAD. They’re supplied as PDFs. These are for Building Control. These are for your builder. These are for your records.
