Home designs to improve your living
Home improvements quite often go hand in hand with life improvements, at CK Architectural Hull and East Riding of Yorkshire we work with you throughout the design process advising you on the options available and helping you make the right decisions.
CK Architectural Hull and East Riding of Yorkshire offer you free advice and a free quotation, so you can take the time needed before you take the plunge. Our dedicated team of professionals will take your project design through the planning and the building regulations needed.
The service we offer does not end at approved plans, we can provide help and advice throughout the building process and offer a range of other services to make everything as easy as possible for you.
Building extensions
Extensions are the typical way to create space at the side or rear of your property with a single or double storey extension. Extending your home is a good option when you are happy with the location and want to improve your space and living arrangements.
Single Storey Extensions can extend your kitchen to a nice open plan social space or you may want to choose a glass extension for the sun and natural lighting or garden room effect.
Double Storey Extensions for that extra bedroom and more living space below. Everything your architectural designer does is done to get the best possible outcome for you, with consideration of planning approval and building regulations throughout the process so that plans can be approved. We understand that these are not just drawings, they are a detailed illustration of what you want to achieve within your budget and time scale.
Loft & Garage Conversions
Loft conversions are quite often a hidden gem within the home, utilising the roof space for habitable rooms can be a great way to gain additional space.
We design with you to get the most out of the roof space with as little impact to the floor below as possible.
The Structural elements required, and building regulations are all considered. Read our detailed guide for Converting Your Roof, for all you need to know about drawing, plans, planning and the building regulations.
Garage conversions in much the same way are accessible to many properties too, also using Permitted Development Rights, negating planning permission.
Building a new home
If you are thinking about building your own home (self-build / new build) for the first time, or even if you are a seasoned developer, then we have the skills, knowledge and expertise you need. We design every detail for your project alongside you, so when you move into your house it really is your home. We will give free advice before getting into expensive fees, email us your site address and details. For a small fee, we will make the necessary enquiries to your local planning authority and produce a comprehensive feasibility report.
Once we have established that your desired new home can be obtained, the project design can begin. We will sit with you and develop a project brief to discover exactly what you will need to get the best living standard from your site and budget. We present you with various design options based around your brief and discuss all of options available to you. We will then complete the design with you and from there we can take it through the planning process, building regulations and even project manage the build for you if required. Our designs can be produced in rendered 3D and even as a walkthrough of your designed home before you make your final decisions.
Barn Conversions
Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire have some of the country’s most beautiful landscapes with disused farm houses/ buildings that can provide the shell for enigmatic and captivating buildings that are ready to be converted.
Although the government has made converting these buildings into homes easier there are still many hurdles that can prevent permission. If you are one of the lucky ones that has a barn or an outbuilding available read our online guide and book a consultation, let CK Architectural Hull and East Riding of Yorkshire help you make the building into something special.
