Many extensions in Fairmilehead fall under permitted development rights and don't need full planning permission. However, you'll always need a building warrant from Edinburgh Council. Conservation areas or listed buildings require planning consent — we assess this and handle all applications on your behalf.
Planning and building warrant approval takes 8–12 weeks. Construction of a single storey extension typically takes 8–12 weeks, two storey extensions 12–16 weeks. We provide a detailed programme during the design stage.
Absolutely. Matching Edinburgh's distinctive stone is something we specialise in. We source matching stone, brick, roof tiles and windows to ensure your extension integrates seamlessly with your existing Fairmilehead property.
Yes — the vast majority of our Fairmilehead clients stay in their homes throughout construction. We create weatherproof barriers, maintain site access, and minimise disruption at every stage.
