Architectural Services

At James Howell Designs, we are proud to provide a full range of architectural services, guiding clients through every stage of their project. Whether you are planning a new build, an extension, or a renovation, our experienced team delivers expert advice and creative design solutions to bring your vision to life. From the earliest concept ideas through to final completion, we focus on achieving results that are tailored to your individual needs and expectations.

Our architectural services often begin with Pre-Application advice, giving you the opportunity to receive valuable feedback from the Local Authority before submitting a formal planning application. This is particularly beneficial for projects in sensitive locations such as Conservation Areas or for large-scale developments. By identifying potential issues early, we help clients move forward with confidence and improve the likelihood of gaining approval.
Once the planning stage is underway, we progress into Detailed Design. This important part of our architectural services ensures that every element of your scheme is refined and compliant with building regulations. We prepare detailed drawings and technical specifications that not only support planning submissions but also provide clear guidance for your contractors during construction.

To ensure precision, we carry out comprehensive Site Surveys as part of our architectural services. These measured surveys cover existing structures, site levels, drainage, and surrounding features, providing accurate data for planning, calculations, and design development. Alongside this, we also offer Landscape and Interior Design to complement your project. Whether you want a garden that integrates seamlessly with your extension or interiors that reflect your lifestyle, our tailored solutions combine practicality with style.

Our architectural services also include structural calculations and complete planning application management. From checking load-bearing walls to designing foundations, we ensure your build is safe and structurally sound. We also manage the full planning submission process, liaising with Local Authorities and addressing key considerations such as privacy, scale, and visual impact. For clients seeking complete support, we provide Contract Administration—overseeing contractors, managing materials, and keeping the project on track from start to finish. At James Howell Designs, our goal is to make sure your build runs smoothly, stays within budget, and delivers the results you imagined.
