Tearing your roof off to make space for a whole new floor in your home can be a daunting prospect. But for those living in estates, complexes or neighbourhoods that do not allow much space horizontally, vertical additions make sense. The first step is making sure you have a proper schematic design from a registered architect. This is basically a blueprint as to how the layout will look design and space-wise.
In order to obtain planning permission for a commercial building, you need to have a lot of knowledge about the laws and policies that are applicable. There is a vast difference in the requirements needed for industrial buildings compared to commercial buildings. The permission for a commercial building will be necessary if you are changing the use of your building, or renovating your commercial building. The good thing about Forward Thinking Architecture is that we can inform you if planning permission is necessary or not for your building work and assist you with the process of being granted the required permission.
