    What We Do

    The Complete Extension Design Package

    Hampshire Build provides the complete architectural design service for residential extensions. We handle everything from initial concept through to planning approval and building regulations drawings — all on a fixed fee so you know exactly what you're paying before you commit.

    We are qualified architectural technicians, not builders. Our focus is design, drawings, and planning — giving you the professional documentation you need to get planning permission and instruct a contractor with confidence.

    Planning Drawings & Application

    Site plan, floor plans, and elevations drawn to planning authority standards. We submit the full application on your behalf.

    Building Regulations Drawings

    Full technical drawing set with structural calculations from a qualified engineer. Everything your builder needs to comply with building regulations.

    Contractor Tender Management

    Premium Package clients receive a detailed schedule of works and tender documentation sent to two vetted contractors — with a proposal comparison so you can make an informed decision.

    Transparent Pricing

    Do you need building regulations drawings for an extension?
