FAQ – Large scale residential developments for developer clients (100+ plots)
Do we do jobs that big?
We do not typically work on schemes of this size from planning stage though we do have very experienced architects in the office who have designed large projects in the past. We have a lot of experience of taking these larger schemes on post planning, producing the building regulations and construction issue drawings.
Can we do a feasibility study?
Yes, we can do a quick feasibility study to investigate the layout of a site and the number of plots we can get on. We need you to tell us what type of development you want (houses/flats), what size flats/houses, and what market you are aiming for. Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) calculations will be required which will mean appointing an ecologist at an early stage to assess the biodiversity value of the site. We can obtain competitive quotations for this if required. Please be aware that the BNG Regulations could affect how much development we can get on site so our initial feasibility could be subject to change or off-site BNG contributions could be required once an ecologist has completed their work.
How long will it take?
This is dependent on the size and complexity of the site and we will advise on time scale once we have seen the site and been given the brief.
